I too am on netcom, also shell acct like you.
Here are the csh aliases I use:
lynx /usr/local/nuglops/bin/lynx -show_cursor -vikeys -cache=20
lynx_bookmarks.html
testlynx /u13/wcheung/bin/lynxtest -show_cursor -vikeys -cache=60
lynx_bookmarks.html
treelynx /usr/local/nuglops/bin/lynx -show_cursor -vikeys -cache=20
lynx_bookmarks.html -traversal -crawl -realm > /dev/null
"testlynx" is the newest installed on netcom, a sort-of "beta",
updated by wcheung every few days or so
Hope this helps.
