What do you mean "not recognize"?
Does `lynx file.xhtml` not work? (It works for me, even in my distro's
supplied 2.8.8rel.2) Maybe your /etc/mime.types file (or whatever
GLOBAL_EXTENSION_MAP is set to) isn't set up right. Mine has the line:
application/xhtml+xml xhtml xhtm xht
I sent a patch a while back to let you view the source code of XHTML
documents by \, but AFAIK, it was never applied (though, my fork of
Thomas Dickey's lynx-snapshots repository has it).
