Unfortunately it didn't solve the main problem with the bookmarks, which is
removing a link when the bookmarks file is also the startfile. I have my
main bookmarks file defined as the startfile in userdefs.h, advanced
multi-bookmarks selected and two bookmarks files. When I run lynx and try to
remove a link from de main/startfile bookmarks file, lynx just redraws the
screen and does nothing. To be able to remove a link I have to go to
bookmarks B with the "v" command and to go the bookmarks A also using the
"v" command. That behaviour started when multi-bookmarks was implemented.
