Just compiled Lynx 2.6 for FreeBSD 2.1R.  It works, but it doesn't do a
good job of highlighting.  The links are all displayed in inverse, and the
only clue as to where you're at is a block cursor next to them that's hard
to see.  The version that comes preinstalled (I think it was 2.4) looked
much nicer and highlighted only the link that was currently selected.
Does anyone know what I have to tweak to get lynx to use the full
capabilities of the terminal?  I've used Lynx on other machines that have
three different text intensities and other enhancements...
