LYNX-DEV fotemods.zip update

        An update of fotemods.zip is available in:

        http://www.slcc.edu/lynx/fote/patches/

1997-05-11
* Tweaks in LYMainLoop.c to ensure that the LYforce_HTML_mode flag is
  reset reliably, so it doesn't carry over to requests for text/plain
  documents, as it was doing under some circumstances in the vanilla
  code, e.g., when a bookmark file was used as the startfile via a
  file://localhost/path URL rather than via the -book switch. - FM
1997-05-10
* Fixed a typo in statusline() of LYUtils.c.  The check for whether
  the string is zero length before bothering to convert CJK multi-bytes
  was checking a holding buffer instead of the string. - FM
* Fixed a bug in LYHandleMETA() of LYCharUtils.c.  The check for a
  URL following the SECONDS value in REFRESH directives was not
  taking into account that an EOL might follow the digits for the
  SECONDS value. - FM
* Changed the behavior of boolean_choice() in LYOptions.c so that the
  cursor is positioned immediately at the option display line instead
  of staying at the statusline instructions until an initial entry is
  made, and modified the statusline instructions accordingly. - LE & FM
* Changes to avoid memory leaks in LYCookie.c - KW
* Added a check for a NULL pointer in the LYCookie.c code for blocking
  sharing of SSL encrypted cookies with http servers, based on a patch
  from RT, and added a comment on why code for a block based on the
  scheme is there, despite its being redundant with the current blanket
  restriction based of the ports. - FM
* Mapped 0 to F_LINK_NUM (as suggested by KW), and restored 5 to a dead
  key when in NUMBERS_AS_ARROWS mode, so that 0 invokes the "Follow link
  (or page) number:" prompt under all circumstances (but with the 0 not
  treated as the first digit of the number entry).  That's a better way
  to do it, because then the F_LINK_NUM command and explanation always
  appears in the "Current Key Map" display, and only the mappings of
  numbers to functions drop out when going from NUMBERS_AS_ARROWS to
  LINKS_ARE_NUMBERS mode (as they should, 'cuz the numbers no longer
  are mapped to functions; though maybe they should stay mapped to
  functions now that we have an explicit command key for invoking the
  prompt; something to think about...). - FM
* Updated the PROBLEMS file to indicate that you should try changing
  -lresolve to -lbind if you have upgraded to the bind-8.1 or later
  library on a Sun system and keep getting the message "Alert!:  Unable
  to connect to remote host". - FM
