hmm - "normal" for me is to mainly use dselect, and occasionally some
special apt-get command. I'll see how to install this.

And an alignment problem there is surprising. The changes that I made for
adjusting link-position were to allow for multicolumn characters earlier
on the same line. (Of course, in changing things, I could have also added
a bug - but for an ASCII page such as this, I'd expect our results to be
the same).

odd - it looks normal to me (checking with kterm, and setting display
charset to EUC-JP). I put two screenshots (of the options menu, because I
can see the effect of the display charset there) in
ftp://invisible-island.net/temp
to show the effect of the display charset:
lynx-iso8859-1.png
lynx-eucjp.png
If the display charset doesn't match, then lynx and ncurses will not agree
on the width of strings written to the display. And as I noted, there
may be places in the code which I have not yet discovered that must be
modified to work properly.
