Yea thats about it. Even mine would have to be tweaked some, but it is
partially transplantable as I move it to a new directory without changes
every time I upgrade to a different version of lynx. It is also
importable from BC4.5 and up so 5.0+ users could share it. I am not
comfortable with makefiles so I know I would want to have a choice of
getting the ide file. I just want to know where/how I should offer it.
