I don't have access to those new-fangled graphics machines most of the
time and when I do I'm frequently confounded by the unutterable slowness
of the browsers commonly on them. So Lynx has been my best friend for a
couple of years now -- even when I was losing 60% of the packets over a
dodgy link it worked. And I'm _very_ grateful for your efforts to produce
and improve it. Having said that, I hope that this helps...

I've never submitted a bug report before, I hope this is what you need.
I downloaded the latest Lynx (2.8.2dev12) to check something I thought was a 
bug: in 2.8.2dev12 that one had gone. But -- I found another..

The highlighting of links goes wrong with unless keypad mode is set to
"numbers act as arrows". With the other two, the highlighting begins
(about) seven characters before the link and finishes correspondingly
early on some sites. A site this happens with all the time is
http://www.linux.org.uk. I didn't change most of the configuration options
and compiled it with gcc, slang 0.99.38 on Red Hat Linux 5.2. My terminal
doesn't do colour, so it shows as inverse video (if this is relevant?)
The links still _work_: it's just the displaying of them shows up wrong.

If you need more information, please say. I dunno what you need.

Thanks again for Lynx. I love it :)
