You are now a lynx developer - it doesn't take more than sending patches
and being on the list.  At least that's always been my understanding.

Tom is integrating the patches, so it's finally up to him whether he
wants to add a new source file or not; I was just pointing out that some
more files and scripts would have to be changed.  You may just want to
take that into consideration.

(Others have replied to that.)
I am cc'ing you until you complain, since I don't know whether you
are losing messages.

(To repeat myself:) My preference is that IF "--xxx" flags are recognized,
THEN (for those long style flags, at least) the syntax for forcing on/off
instead of toggling should also change (from "-xxx+" and "-xxx-").
(I don't know how this fits in with the visions various people have for
revamping the whole flags and options handling.)

I don't want 'lynx  URL-1 URL-2 [...] URL-N' to be suddenly treated
as an error - it works fine as far as I am concerned.  But making
URL-1 ... URL-N-1 available for 'g' command recall after startup
would be a nice touch.
