Re: [Lynx-dev] Lynx SSL help

You will need to install the certificate into your system to have it connect without prompting (see README.sslcerts). Does it connect to the target server interactively? There was an improvement to file upload between 2.8.5dev.7 and 2.8.6dev.11 which I investigated a few months ago; I don't kn

[Lynx-dev] NO_TITLE blank line before bottom row

With dev13c NO_TITLE:TRUE set the row above the bottom "status" line (in ADVANCED user mode) is always blank (regular 80 x 25 getty terminal). I just went to fiddle with the user mode settings in 'O'ptions and find that this row doesn't seem to redraw either. If I select NOVICE mode and 'A'cce

Re: [Lynx-dev] Lynx on 10x8-Terminal - Disable non-content lines?

It's great, even on NetBSD ;) The syslog feature can be most useful for college/shell account providers. I noticed it back in May but hadn't tried it. File size, server reponse codes, (those are always available aren't they?) and disabling user tagging might be useful enhancements. Stef htt

In lynx.cfg: DEFAULT_USER_MODE:ADVANCED will get rid of 2 of the 3 bottom lines. NOMARGINS:TRUE isn't available yet in lynx.cfg - you have to specify lynx -nomargins as a command line option AWAI (can this be added to lynx.cfg? - I asked a while ago but it probably fell through the cracks). I

Re: [Lynx-dev] A little script...

Sounds like you want a piped open to lynx and perl would be the choice for this, especially to be able to do concurrent submit/save/back type operations with lynx. Lynx is not really the limitation, it's using sh that's holding you back; you could conceivably use LWP to accomplish the post-pro

Re: [Lynx-dev] Startfile page not available

I'd probably get a local copy of a basic lynx helpfile to assist new users. Just tried lynx /dev/zero which is pretty interesting. Read stopped at 2095000KiB and then started up again. Consumed all available cpu of course. Stef http://caunter.ca/contact.html On Fri, 12 Aug 2005, Thomas Dick

Re: [Lynx-dev] Startfile page not available

Best to use a local file. There is a compile option for this (put it into userdefs.h). If you can add an argument to lynx, say lynx . or lynx ./file to avoid startup failure. Stef On Fri, 12 Aug 2005, Small, Gene wrote: I know the Lynx documentation says that Lynx will refuse to start if t

Re: [Lynx-dev] Auth via CMD line issues.

Works with dev13. I know lynx does not use getopt, but - and -- are interchangeable; the -auth forgives ellipsis of the '=': --auth=foo:bar --auth foo:bar -auth foo:bar -auth=foo:bar confounding those of us who try all combinations. Stef On Fri, 12 Aug 2005, Henr

Re: [Lynx-dev] Auth via CMD line issues.

Can you check the server logs to see if username is transmitted? Does it work interactively when the 401 is sent from the server? Come to think of it, is a 401 sent from the server, meaning are you asked for a password, and is that configured correctly? Stef http://caunter.ca/crypto.html On We

It is a javascript form submit button; this kind of form design does not work with lynx. Best to ask the server/website people to offer a "real" html form submit action. Stef - http://caunter.ca/contact.html On Sun, 26 Jun 2005, Riku Virtanen wrote: > I'm trying to use the portal of the ECHR (
