This is a port of Lynx 2.8.8  to MSDOS/DJGPP.

  Lynx is a fully-featured World Wide Web (WWW) client for users running
  cursor-addressable, character-cell display devices such as vt100 terminals,
  vt100 emulators running on character-cell display.  It will display Hypertext
  Markup Language (HTML) documents containing links to files on the local system,
  as well as files on remote systems running http, gopher, ftp, wais, nntp,
  finger, or cso/ph/qi servers, and services accessible via logins to telnet,
  tn3270 or rlogin accounts.



1.:     DJGPP specific changes.
        =======================

        The port has been configured and compiled with support enabled for
        BZIP2, ZLIB, PDCURSE, OPENSSL and WATT-32.  The used ports are:
          ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2apps/bz2-106a.zip
          ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/zlib128b.zip
          ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/pdcur34a.zip
          ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/ssl101jb.zip
          ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/wat3222br3.zip
        Later version may also work.  Previous versions have never been tested.
        Programs compiled with openssl require the installation of a noise
        source like:
          http://www.rahul.net/dkaufman/noise063a2.zip
        Programs compiled with WATT-32 requires a valid wattcp.cfg configuration
        file.  This must reflect the used network environment and hardware.
        The WATTCP.CFG environment variable must be set to point to this file.

        The port has been configured with NLS support enabled.  The used ports
        are:
          ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/licv114br2.zip
          ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/gtxt192b.zip
        These are DXE3 modules and _MUST_ be installed or the program will abort
        every time it is started.
        If you prefer no NLS, then reconfigure the sources passing the no-nls
        flag to the config.bat file.

        Building with stock djdev204 is no longer supported due to bugs in
        different LFN functions that makes the port useless on plain DOS
        together with LFN drivers that do not implement the full set of 0x71NN
        functions.  Instead of using the libc.a provided djdev204, a libc version
        compiled from the repository code has been used.  The repository code has
        been patched with the memory patch as provided by Andris Pavenis in:
          http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/djdev/djgpp/20140421/use_nmalloc.diff
        The goal is to test how well the new memory system and the current libc
        code works.  The repository code can be downloaded from Martin Stromberg's
        site as:
          http://www.ludd.luth.se/~ams/djgpp/cvs/djgpp.cvs.tar.gz

        The port has been configured and compiled on WinXP SP3.  There is no
        guarantee that this may be possible with any other DOS-like OS.  Due
        to the use of long file names it will not be possible to configure and
        compile without LFN support.

        The program will look in the canonical directory, this is /dev/env/DJDIR/etc
        for its control files like lynx.cfg and lynx.lss.  This behavior can be
        changed by setting the LYNX_CFG and LYNX_LSS to point to different files.

        To be able to run the program, a DOS packet driver (PKTDRVR) is required.
        This may be obtained from the card manufacturer or from one of the archives
        of packet drivers (such as "http://www.lanet.lv/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html"
        or "http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/pktdrvr/").
        Even when only browsing local files, a NULLPKT packet driver is required
        like nullpkt.zip.  The zip file can be downloaded as:
          http://www.jumpjet.info/Application-Software/DOS/Hardware/2/NULLPKT/NULLPKT.zip

        The lynx executable itself handles http:, https:, ftp:, file:, news:,
        nntp: and gopher: protocols. You will need external programs if you want
        to access telnet:, tn3270:, or mailto: URLs.  In this case a port of
        kermit may be required.

        It is important to realize that this port will onyl work under plan DOS.
        It will not work in a DOS session of any Windows.  If for some reason you
        think that lynx must be used under Windows, you should download a windows
        port od lynx.

        As usual, all djgpp specific files (config.bat, diffs, README files,
        etc.) are located in the /djgpp directory.

        For further information about Lynx please read the info docs and NEWS file.


2.:     Installing the binary package.
        ==============================

2.1.:   Copy the binary distribution into the top DJGPP installation directory,
        just unzip it preserving the directory structure running *ONE* of the
        following commands:
          unzip32 lynx288b.zip      or
          djtarx lynx288b.zip       or
          pkunzip -d lynx288b.zip


3.:     Building the binaries from sources.
        ===================================

3.1.:   Create a temporary directory and copy the source package into the
        directory.  If you download the source distribution from one of the
        DJGPP sites, just unzip it preserving the directory structure
        running *ONE* of the following commands:
          unzip32 lynx288s.zip      or
          djtarx lynx288s.zip       or
          pkunzip -d lynx288s.zip

3.2.:   To build the binaries you will need the following binary packages:
          djdev203.zip (or a later but NOT a prior version)
          bsh205bbr3.zip (or a later but NOT a prior version)
          gccNNNb.zip, gppNNN.zip, bnuNNNb.zip, makNNNb.zip, filNNNb.zip,
          shlNNNb.zip, txtNNNb.zip, txiNNNb.zip, grepNNNb.zip, sedNNNb.zip,
          pdcurNNNa.zip, mktmpNNb.zip and gwkNNNb.zip.

        If you want to configure and compile this packages with NLS support
        enabled you must install licvNNNb.zip and gtxNNNNb.zip.

        You will also need the Watt-32 and the OpenSSL libraries wat3222br3.zip
        and ssl101jb.zip.  No previous versions.

        NNN represents the latest version number of the binary packages.  All
        this packages can be found in the /v2gnu directory of any
        ftp.delorie.com mirror.
        You will need bsh205bbr3.zip or later and *NOT* a prior version or
        the build will fail.  The same applies to djdev203.zip.

3.3.:   The package has been configured for DJGPP 2.04 only.
        There is a separate build directory for DJGPP 2.04 under the top srcdir
        (aka lynx-2.8.8).  To build the binaries using the 2.04 version
        of DJGPP cd into _build.203.  If for some reason you want to reconfigure
        the package cd into the corresponding build directory and run the following
        commands:
          del config.cache
          make clean
          ..\djgpp\config ./..

        Please note that you *MUST* delete the config.cache file in the djgpp
        subdir or you will not really reconfigure the sources because the
        configuration informations will be read from the cache file instead
        of being newly computed.

        config.bat, among other things, will start the configure script passing
        to it a couple of arguments.  You can control these argument passing the
        following command line arguments to config.bat:
          nls or no-nls, default nls.  NLS support.
          cache or no-cache, default cache.
          dep or no-dep, default no-dep.  No dependency tracking.

          zlib or no-zlib, default zlib.  Link lynx with zlib to enable
                                          zlib compression support.
          bzlib or no-bzlib, default bzlib.  Link lynx with bzip2 library to
                                             enable bzip2 compression support.
          ssl or no-ssl, default ssl.  Link lynx with OpenSSL to enable SSL v2/v3
                                       and TLS v1 support.
        All other configure specific options are not set by config.bat so their
        values are left as they are.  If no arguments are passed to config.bat
        then the default values are used.


        To build the programs in a directory other than where the sources are,
        you must add the parameter that specifies the source directory,
        e.g:
          x:\src\gnu\lynx-2.8.8\djgpp\config x:/src/gnu/lynx-2.8.8

        Lets assume you want to build the binaries in a directory placed on a
        different drive (z:\build in this case) from where the sources are,
        then you will run the following commands:
          z:
          md \build
          cd \build
          x:\src\gnu\lynx-2.8.8\djgpp\config x:/src/gnu/lynx-2.8.8

        The order of the options and the srcdir option does not matter.  You
        *MUST* use forward slashes to specify the source directory.

        The batch file will set same environment variables, make MSDOS specific
        modifications to the Makefile.in's and supply all other needed options
        to the configure script.

3.4.:   To compile the package run from the directory where you have configured
        the sources the command:
          make

3.6.:   To install the binaries and info docs run the following command from
        the directory where you have configured the sources:
          make install-full

        This will install the products into your DJGPP installation tree given
        by the default prefix "/dev/env/DJDIR".  If you prefer to install them
        into some other directory you will have to set prefix to the appropriate
        value:
          make install-full prefix=z:/some/other/place
