seconded; also, Lynx is developed by an international co-op of volunteers,
so suggestion lists should be kept short,
unless you're prepared to offer your own program patches.

many people have complained about this from time to time:
as far as i can remember, back in the days of the prophets
one of them denounced such behaviour as contrary to the 10 Lynx commandments
(whatever they were (grin)) & no-one felt willing to disagree.
in these more modern times, is there indeed any reason
why Lynx cannot cache the source version of a page obtained by \ ,
just like any other page, while keeping the rendered version also in cache?
there's always ^r to force a re-write.
certainly, i find traditional behaviour a nuisance.
