Personally, I like it as is. The page title, once it's
available, is generally more informative/mnemonic than the
URL. If I want to copy & paste a URL, it's available in the
status line, since I run in advanced mode. If I want
to save several URL's I can just bookmark them (have you
figured out multi-bookmarks yet?). If I really want the
whole page of links, I can print the source to a file and
bookmark the file.
Can't really think of anything else I'd want to do ....
Well, maybe a way to append the current page/source to an
existing file ... I guess that would mean defining a PRINTER
option in lynx.cfg ... naw, too much trouble ...
