To get color the slang way, you need to run lynx with the command line switch
`-color'.

The TERM setting really has little to do with slang color.  As long as
your real terminal can present color, and your terminal emulator software,
or dialup software, is not stripping off escape codes, you should get
color.

Yes, have them working.  If you have the command line switch, and you got
no errors with the sun4-slang target, then I guess it's your emulator or
dialup software.
