The lynx.cfg file states:
# XLOADIMAGE_COMMAND will be used as a default in src/HTInit.c
# for viewing image content types when the DECW$DISPLAY logical
# is set. Make it the foreign command for your system's X image
# viewer (commonly, "xv"). It can be anything that will handle GIF,
# TIFF and other popular image formats. Freeware ports of xv for
# VMS are available in the ftp://ftp.wku.edu/vms/unsupported and
# http://www.openvms.digital.com/cd/XV310A/ subdirectories.
But xv is not a freeware package, and the openvms.digital.com URL returns
The requested URL was not found
The requested URL was not found
HTTP status code: 404
In fact, in the Unix paragraph on XLOADIMAGE_COMMAND, xv is referred to as
shareware. Perhaps that should be how it is referenced here?
Since I don't use VMS, I don't know whether there is something special
about this particular release of the program.
