Dear Klaus,

    Thanks for checking my batch file.  You're right, I did not have a
'tmp' directory, but do have a 'temp' directory.  I changed lynx.bat to:

@ECHO OFF
set term=vt100
set home=c:\progra~1\lynx
set temp=c:\temp
set lynx_cfg=c:\progra~1\lynx\lynx.cfg
c:\progra~1\lynx\lynx.exe http://USAToday.com

    Now the various commands all work to some degree:  , the p)rint
command, o)ptions command, d)ownload command, and the V)isted links
command.  However, the p)rint command only will print to a file (and not
send the page to an actual printer) or try to send an email (and
apparently it needs my smtp server name -- smtp.email.msn.com --
inserted somewhere to send an email), and the d)ownload command,
although trying to work, doesn't actually seem to be saving the file
anywhere -- there is a flash on the MS-Dos screen which is too quick for
me to read, and then no file with the given name shows up.  I'm sure I
will figure all this out sooner or later... I am reading the user manual
now, and the various help files, and they may give me the answer.  In
the meantime, as usual, I appreciate all the help the readers of this
list have been giving me.

    Sincerely,

    David Silverman
