[Lynx-dev] link background in lynx-2.8.6-27

[Stephen Isard]

Hello,

I've recently installed Scientific Linux 6.3, which comes with the rpm package 
lynx-2.8.6-27.el6.x86_64.  In the included /etc/lynx.lss, there is a line
alink:          reverse:                yellow:         black
but links are displayed as yellow on a white, rather than black, background, 
which I find hard to see.  If I replace the word "black" by any other 
permissable  color name, the links come up with that color as background.  It 
is only "black" (and of course "white") that gives a white background.

The above is true in gnome-terminal as well as color versions of xterm and 
rxvt, but I don't think it is what was intended.

Regards,

Stephen Isard
