Here's my current batch file:
@ECHO OFF
set home=c:\webbro~2\lynx
set temp=c:\tmp
set lynx_cfg=c:\webbro~2\lynx\lynx.cfg
set user=Atram
c:\webbro~2\lynx\lynx.exe
I believe this batch file is locating my lynx.cfg correctly, because all
the other options I set in it (i.e. startfile, domain, etc.) are being
implemented.
The colors are not. I tried option 2 below, but this doesn't work for me
either.
To clear things up: I *do* get the colors I want when I click on lynx.exe
or a shortcut to it. However, when I do this, my HOME directory is back in
c:\tmp.
I was just wondering if I could have the best of both worlds by getting the
colors and the properly located bookmark file.
