So the question then is how to deal best with having multiple names
for files --- one name for inside and one name for outside. One
solution would be to write a "convert" script to move all appropriate
files from the outside to the inside. Another would be to have a
function which returned the appropriate name --- prepending a
"~/.lynx" or "~/.lynx/" to the base filename as necessary.
