I can run lynx from that directory no problem. You might have a problem
if you try to use that for ini directories and stuff though. Just use the
short name of c:\progra~1\lynx\lynx.exe (or whatever). Sometimes this
type of problem crops up because Win95 doesn't truely support long file
names--it just pretends to. Check the regestry and see all the entries
using the short file names :-(
