Just out of curiosity, what kind of .mime.types file format does lynx
support?  I have 2 versions of mime.types files in my enviornment:

1. NCSA httpd format:

application/wordperfect6.0      wp6 wp
application/x-chess-pgn         pgn
application/x-fig               fig
application/x-perl              pl

2. Netscape format:

type=audio/x-pn-realaudio  \
desc="RealAudio"  \
exts=".rm,.ra,.ram" 
#mime types added by Netscape Helper
type=audio/x-wav  \
desc="WAV Audio"  \
exts="wav" 
#mime types added by Netscape Helper
type=video/* 
#mime types added by Netscape Helper
type=audio/* 
#mime types added by Netscape Helper
type=audio/x-mpeg  \
desc="MPEG Audio"  \
exts="mp2,mpa,abs,mpega,mp3" 

Or simply, lynx doesn't use mime.types at all, just the settings in
lynx.cfg? 

Also, when lynx selects a viewer for a file, does it use the settings in
mailcap, or just ignore it and use lynx.cfg settings?
