I need some coffee. 300 minutes ? 5 hours ? http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month022000/msg00339.html "When trying to connect to a web site which may be locked up, lynx will sit there. Is there a timeout parameter I can set to, say, 10 sec?" "The usual approach is to compile with nsl-fork, and press 'z' when you get bored." Sure, and if I understand it, with the default value you're screwed where 'z' doesn't work. -- http://www.pervalidus.net/contact.html ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
