Never mind, I found the answer right after I posted the question. I just
had to rtflynx.cfg. If there is anybody else with the same problem, these
are the solutions:
1) in lynx.cfg, set the variable GLOBAL_EXTENSION_MAP so that it points to
an extension map file. In this file, erase or comment out any line that
assign an extension to application/x-Tex, and add `tex' to the extension
map for text/plain. A sample extension file is samples/mime.types.
or
2) Do the same for the PERSONAL_EXTENSION_MAP. You can simply copy
samples/mime.types to ~/.mime.types, eddit the file as described in 1)
and uncomment the line for PERSONAL_EXTENSION_MAP in lynx.cfg.
or
3) In lynx.cfg, add a line SUFFIX:.tex:text/plain
