Done.

This is a new effort on Tom's part, so some pages may be skeletons.

The DOS page mentions DOSLynx is on
ftp://ftp2.cc.ukans.edu/pub/WWW/DosLynx/ which I assume is dated. Can
someone else give me some fresh pointers or go ahead and register to
edit that section?

The text entry area is a bit squinty using Lynx, since the form only
allows 10x60 <textarea rows="10" cols="60" name="entry">. I'd prefer
something like 20x72 myself. The current version of Lynx doesn't behave
too well with the small size, as has been mentioned elsewhere.
