A technical note to Tom.
I think a good place to solve the problem with blanks is in
LYLegitimizeHREF(), by moving is_url() call up to the top and work around
different schemes explicitly (LYNXPROG_URL_TYPE, ... FILE_URL_TYPE), and
remove space escaping code from HTParse().  The only place where the url is
not passed through LYLegitimizeHREF() is LYEnsureAlsoluteURL().  The third
place may be somethere in HTTP redirect code, at least in theory.
