An annoying problem; if there is somewhere in the rc file or compilation
and I've missed it, kindly ignore this.
Lynx seems to have a global ctrl-g binding that cancels whatever the
current operation is. This is great, I love it; but on a host
resolution where the query seems to be lost somehow, whether it be a
non-responding host or what I don't know, but it crops up often when
doing web searches and things of the like...going down a list of hits
you get 404s, can't connects, blah blah...and then there is the
occasional host where it starts resolving and just sits there -- for a
long while before it will return an error. While there is probably a
timeout setting for this, I miss the universal cancel operation -- which
doesn't work in this situation. Any hope that it could be added?
Thanks...
