For a while now, there's been an under-documented feature that does what you
want. Start lynx as:
lynx -cmd_log=yourfile https://whatever.com/
and do whatever it is you want automated. Your keystrokes will be logged to
"yourfile". When and if you get to a point in the session where you'll want to
take back control of lynx, I guess you'd have to "Q"uit lynx at that point, and
then edit the log file to remove that "Q". I don't believe you can turn off
keystroke logging from within lynx, the way you can trace logging.
Then starting with:
lynx -cmd_script=yourfile https://whatever.com/
will replay your desired keystrokes.
