Actually, there are now 4 options which Lynx will offer automagically:
   Save to a local file
   Mail the file
   Print to the screen
   Print out on a printer attached to your vt100 terminal

I suggest that you use the exact language, unless you think the
hardcoded strings should be changed, in which case that needs to
be done first.

I think it needs to be mentioned, however, that the latter two
will not be offered in the DOS/WINDOWS ports, thanks to Leonid's
tweaks (see the latest CHANGES).  Right here, I want to thank
Leonid for his constant efforts at making Lynx a well-polished,
production-caliber program.  You often work behind the scenes,
but you certainly have offered a lot!

Eventually, my plan was to have these latter two controlled by a
lynx.cfg entry to turn them on or off (not just in print_options(),
but also in printfile()).  It's on my list, but a much more pressing
concern (not having source \n converted to html ' ') has me tied
down right now.

Sentences should begin with upper-case letters.  In general, I see
no improvement in this section over the original.

Blank lines have their place sometimes.

This should be deleted altogether.  (It was an oversight on my part not
to have done it.  Sorry.)

Same comments as above: 4 (2 with DOS/WIN) options, should be literal.

Therefore important not to introduce another name (Print to local file).

Just input, not meant to knock down.
