| Wow!  I have tried these keys and found the difference:
| they acts differently when you have several anchors at the same line,
| try "Supported URLs" page from lynx main help page.
|
| ">" moves between "first anchor on a line"
| "<" moves between "last anchor on a line"
| while "down arrow" and "up arrow" moves between nearest anchors hornestly.
|
| This is not contradict with keybinding descriptions but you wouldn't guess
| the difference until you saw it, yes.

Ach soooooo ...

You certainly wouldn't guess it.  I suppose I'll find the "<" nad ">" keys
useful for moving more rapidly through the "link summary blocks" that are
often found at the very top or very bottom of a page.

Now that I know about them, anyway.

Thanks ...!
