This (perhaps) implies that there's some trick I don't know about
that allows one to use the p(rint) command to append text to an
existing file as opposed to saving it to a new file, a process which,
if there already exists a file of that name, overwrites the old one.

_Is_ there such an ability in Lynx?  For me, the "printing options"
screen looks like this:

>    Use LESS to view

Am I looking right at the answer and not seeing it?
