[Lynx-dev] downloading compressed pages

[russellbell]

        In the past, when a site gzipped its articles for download,
lynx saved them gzipped.  lynx stopped, but I notice that in the /tmp
directory the gzipped ones are gzipped there.  That's okay with me.
        I notice that nytimes.com gzips most of its articles.  Few
other sites do.  Are they using alternatives, such as xz or lz or bz2
or ?  Or does no one care about us losers with little bandwidth?
