I was aware of this, and I took care to make my patches involving DOSPATH
not assume Dos or Windows.
The ftp://ftp.deninc.com site that had been accepting cygwin and ming ports
is closing down. If anyone wants to test out my latest and greatest un-
official version of lynx under crtdll.dll (the one that comes with Win95
and WinNT), you can write to me suggesting an immediately available ftp
site, with appropriate URL, and I will upload it.
Remember FNAMES_8_3 is used for tempfiles only in my patches, so that even
Win31 viewers and editors can be called by lynx.
