I don't know, but I've often wondered why a proxy or pseudo-proxy
wouldn't work.

Do you know about Tom Zerucha's proxy for tables? It's a well-written
awk script, iirc. (See: http://www.mich.com/~thomas/ftp/lxtab0.5.tar.gz)
It exemplifies what I'm hinting at. You could use anything you're good
at, perl, c, whatever, not only awk.
The reason I mention pseudo-proxy is that it may make more sense in a
"Lynx environment" for the user to decide whether or not a particular
page needs to go through a JS processor.
For many sites these days I use two browsers: MSIE just to do the JS
interpretation and presentation, and Lynx to get and use the "real"
information I'm after. It would be nice if I could just edit the
URL to say "jshttp://javashit.com/"; in Lynx to do the work through
a pseudo-proxy that I farm MSIE out to now.
Just some ideas. _REALLY_ hope you take the project on, in whatever
way you want.
