I have done some testing of the latest lynx.exe. It reads in page 1 of
an old XMosaic bookmark file, then freezes. If I press a key, it reads
in page 2 and freezes. And, so on. Enclosed is the text of the screen
shots:
AUTO Hotlist from root (p1 of 2)
Bookmark file
Internet Newspapers
...........................................
Read 4 KB of data. 80.00 KB/sec.
(It freezes after reading the first 4KB.) If I push a key like `Q', it
reads the next page:
Read 8 KB of data. 0.32 KB/sec.
etc., etc.
If one of the developers knows where in lynx the code was changed so that
not reading from the keyboard blocks something, let me know. I used the
same slang library for release 1 of lynx2.8.2, and it works with no
problems and none of the above.
