Karl Anliot dixit:

In the place where lynx expects an URL, a filename is not the
correct thing to give to it, even if it, as a convenience (I
hate Firefox for not offering the same), often accepts it.

Place file://$PWD in front of it (file:///home/… because the
cwd starts with a slash, you need three).
