# $LynxId: lynx.cfg,v 1.222 2012/11/14 01:18:19 tom Exp $ # lynx.cfg file. # The default placement for this file is /etc/lynx.cfg (Red Hat Linux, Fedora) # or Lynx_Dir:lynx.cfg (VMS) # # Please don't edit this file directly (it is updated with every Red Hat # Linux update, overwriting your changes). Instead, edit /etc/lynx-site.cfg. # # $Format: "#PRCS LYNX_VERSION \"$ProjectVersion$\""$ #PRCS LYNX_VERSION "2.8.8dev.15" # # $Format: "#PRCS LYNX_DATE \"$ProjectDate$\""$ #PRCS LYNX_DATE "Sun, 18 Nov 2012 16:20:40 -0800" # # Definition pairs are of the form VARIABLE:DEFINITION # NO spaces are allowed between the pair items. # # If you do not have write access to /usr/local/lib you may change # the default location of this file in the userdefs.h file and recompile, # or specify its location on the command line with the "-cfg" # command line option. # # Items may be commented out by putting a '#' as the FIRST char of the line # (Any line beginning with punctuation is ignored). Leading blanks on each # line are ignored; trailing blanks may be significant depending on the option. # An HTML'ized description of all settings (based on comments in this file, # with alphabetical table of settings and with table of settings by category) # is available at http://lynx.isc.org/release/lynx2-8-7/lynx_help/cattoc.html # ### The conversion is done via the scripts/cfg2html.pl script. ### Several directives beginning with '.' are used for this purpose. .h1 Auxiliary Facilities # These settings control the auxiliary navigating facilities of lynx, e.g., # jumpfiles, bookmarks, default URLs. .h2 INCLUDE # Starting with Lynx 2.8.1, the lynx.cfg file has a crude "include" # facility. This means that you can take advantage of the global lynx.cfg # while also supplying your own tweaks. # # You can use a command-line argument (-cfg /where/is/lynx.cfg) or an # environment variable (LYNX_CFG=/where/is/lynx.cfg). # For instance, put in your .profile or .login: # # LYNX_CFG=~/lynx.cfg; export LYNX_CFG # in .profile for sh/ksh/bash/etc. # setenv LYNX_CFG ~/lynx.cfg # in .login for [t]csh # # Then in ~/lynx.cfg: # # INCLUDE:/usr/local/lib/lynx.cfg # ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ or whatever is appropriate on your system # and now your own tweaks. # # Starting with Lynx 2.8.2, the INCLUDE facility is yet more powerful. You can # suppress all but specific settings that will be read from included files. # This allows sysadmins to provide users the ability to customize lynx with # options that normally do not affect security, such as COLOR, VIEWER, KEYMAP. # # The syntax is # # INCLUDE:filename for <space-separated-list-of-allowed-settings> # # sample: .ex #INCLUDE:~/lynx.cfg for COLOR VIEWER KEYMAP # only one space character should surround the word 'for'. On Unix systems ':' # is also accepted as separator. In that case, the example can be written as .ex #INCLUDE:~/lynx.cfg:COLOR VIEWER KEYMAP # In the example, only the settings COLOR, VIEWER and KEYMAP are accepted by # lynx. Other settings are ignored. Note: INCLUDE is also treated as a # setting, so to allow an included file to include other files, put INCLUDE in # the list of allowed settings. # # If you allow an included file to include other files, and if a list of # allowed settings is specified for that file with the INCLUDE command, nested # files are only allowed to include the list of settings that is the set AND of # settings allowed for the included file and settings allowed by nested INCLUDE # commands. In short, there is no security hole introduced by including a # user-defined configuration file if the original list of allowed settings is # secure. .h2 STARTFILE # STARTFILE is the default starting URL if none is specified # on the command line or via a WWW_HOME environment variable; # Lynx will refuse to start without a starting URL of some kind. # STARTFILE can be remote, e.g. http://www.w3.org/default.html , # or local, e.g. file://localhost/PATH_TO/FILENAME , # where PATH_TO is replaced with the complete path to FILENAME # using Unix shell syntax and including the device on VMS. # # Normally we expect you will connect to a remote site, e.g., the Lynx starting # site: STARTFILE:file:/usr/share/doc/HTML/en-US/index.html # # As an alternative, you may want to use a local URL. A good choice for this is # the user's home directory: .ex #STARTFILE:file://localhost/~/ # # Your choice of STARTFILE should reflect your site's needs, and be a URL that # you can connect to reliably. Otherwise users will become confused and think # that they cannot run Lynx. .h2 HELPFILE # HELPFILE must be defined as a URL and must have a # complete path if local: # file://localhost/PATH_TO/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html # Replace PATH_TO with the path to the lynx_help subdirectory # for this distribution (use SHELL syntax including the device # on VMS systems). # The default HELPFILE is: .url http://lynx.isc.org/release/lynx2-8-7/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html # This should be changed to the local path. # This definition will be overridden if the "LYNX_HELPFILE" environment # variable has been set. # HELPFILE:file://localhost/usr/share/doc/lynx-2.8.8/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html .ex #HELPFILE:file://localhost/PATH_TO/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html .h2 DEFAULT_INDEX_FILE # DEFAULT_INDEX_FILE is the default file retrieved when the # user presses the 'I' key when viewing any document. # An index to your CWIS can be placed here or a document containing # pointers to lots of interesting places on the web. # DEFAULT_INDEX_FILE:http://www.google.com/ .h1 Interaction .h2 GOTOBUFFER # Set GOTOBUFFER to TRUE if you want to have the previous goto URL, # if any, offered for reuse or editing when using the 'g'oto command. # The default is defined in userdefs.h. If left FALSE, the circular # buffer of previously entered goto URLs can still be invoked via the # Up-Arrow or Down-Arrow keys after entering the 'g'oto command. # #GOTOBUFFER:FALSE .h2 JUMP_PROMPT # JUMP_PROMPT is the default statusline prompt for selecting a jumps file # shortcut. (see below). # You can change the prompt here from that defined in userdefs.h. Any # trailing white space will be trimmed, and a single space is added by Lynx # following the last non-white character. You must set the default prompt # before setting the default jumps file (below). If a default jumps file # was set via userdefs.h, and you change the prompt here, you must set the # default jumps file again (below) for the change to be implemented. # #JUMP_PROMPT:Jump to (use '?' for list): .h1 Auxiliary Facilities .h2 JUMPFILE # JUMPFILE is the local file checked for short-cut names for URLs when # the user presses the 'j' (JUMP) key. The file contains an HTML # definition list (DL). The definition titles (DT) are used as # short-cut name; the definition data (DD) are URLs. # # There is an example jumps file in the samples subdirectory. # # After pressing 'j', the user will be prompted to enter a short-cut # name for an URL, which Lynx will then follow in a similar manner to # 'g'oto; alternatively, s/he can enter '?' to view the full JUMPFILE # list of short-cuts with associated URLs. # # If the URL contains one or more "%s" markers, Lynx will prompt the user # for text to fill in for each marker. If no text is given, the jump is # cancelled. # # If not defined here or in userdefs.h, the JUMP command will invoke the # NO_JUMPFILE statusline message (see LYMessages_en.h ). # # To allow '?' to work, include in the JUMPFILE # a short-cut to the JUMPFILE itself, e.g. # <dt>?<dd><a href="file://localhost/path/jumps.html">This Shortcut List</a> # # On VMS, use Unix SHELL syntax (including a lead slash) to define it. # # Alternate jumps files can be defined and mapped to keys here. If the # keys have already been mapped, then those mappings will be replaced, # but you should leave at least one key mapped to the default jumps # file. You optionally may include a statusline prompt string for the # mapping. You must map upper and lowercase keys separately (beware of # mappings to keys which the user can further remap via the 'o'ptions # menu). The format is: # # JUMPFILE:path:key[:prompt] # # where path should begin with a '/' (i.e., not include file://localhost). # Any white space following a prompt string will be trimmed, and a single # space will be added by Lynx. # # In the following line, include the actual full local path to JUMPFILE, # but do not include 'file://localhost' in the line. #JUMPFILE:/FULL_LOCAL_PATH/jumps.html .ex #JUMPFILE:/Lynx_Dir/ips.html:i:IP or Interest group (? for list): .h2 JUMPBUFFER # Set JUMPBUFFER to TRUE if you want to have the previous jump target, # if any, offered for reuse or editing when using the 'J'ump command. # The default is defined in userdefs.h. If left FALSE, the circular # buffer of previously entered targets (shortcuts) can still be invoked # via the Up-Arrow or Down-Arrow keys after entering the 'J'ump command. # If multiple jumps files are installed, the recalls of shortcuts will # be specific to each file. If Lynx was built with PERMIT_GOTO_FROM_JUMP # defined, any random URLs used instead of shortcuts will be stored in the # goto URL buffer, not in the shortcuts buffer(s), and the single character # ':' can be used as a target to invoke the goto URL buffer (as if 'g'oto # followed by Up-Arrow had been entered). # #JUMPBUFFER:FALSE .h1 Internal Behavior .h2 SAVE_SPACE # If SAVE_SPACE is defined, it will be used as a path prefix for the # suggested filename in "Save to Disk" operations from the 'p'rint or # 'd'ownload menus. On VMS, you can use either VMS (e.g., "SYS$LOGIN:") # or Unix syntax (including '~' for the HOME directory). On Unix, you # must use Unix syntax. If the symbol is not defined, or is zero-length # (""), no prefix will be used, and only a filename for saving in the # current default directory will be suggested. # This definition will be overridden if a "LYNX_SAVE_SPACE" environment # variable has been set on Unix, or logical has been defined on VMS. # #SAVE_SPACE:~/foo/ .h2 REUSE_TEMPFILES # Lynx uses temporary files for (among other purposes) the content of # various user interface pages. REUSE_TEMPFILES changes the behavior # for some of these temp files, among them pages shown for HISTORY, # VLINKS, OPTIONS, INFO, PRINT, DOWNLOAD commands. # If set to TRUE, the same file can be used multiple times for the same # purpose. If set to FALSE, a new filename is generated each time before # rewriting such a page. With TRUE, repeated invocation of these commands # is less likely to push previous documents out of the cache of rendered # texts (see also DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE). This is especially useful with # intermittent (dialup) network connections, when it is desirable to # continue browsing through the cached documents after disconnecting. # With the default setting of FALSE, there can be more than one incarnation # of e.g. the VLINKS page cached in memory (but still only the most recently # generated one is kept as a file), resulting in sometimes less surprising # behaviour when returning to such a page via HISTORY or PREV_DOC functions # (most users will not encounter and notice this difference). # #REUSE_TEMPFILES:FALSE .h2 LYNX_HOST_NAME # If LYNX_HOST_NAME is defined here or in userdefs.h, it will be # treated as an alias for the local host name in checks for URLs on # the local host (e.g., when the -localhost switch is set), and this # host name, "localhost", and HTHostName (the fully qualified domain # name of the system on which Lynx is running) will all be passed as # local. A different definition here will override that in userdefs.h. # #LYNX_HOST_NAME:www.cc.ukans.edu .h2 LOCALHOST_ALIAS # localhost aliases # Any LOCALHOST_ALIAS definitions also will be accepted as local when # the -localhost switch is set. These need not actually be local, i.e., # in contrast to LYNX_HOST_NAME, you can define them to trusted hosts at # other Internet sites. # .ex 2 #LOCALHOST_ALIAS:gopher.server.domain #LOCALHOST_ALIAS:news.server.domain .h2 LOCAL_DOMAIN # LOCAL_DOMAIN is used for a tail match with the ut_host element of # the utmp or utmpx structure on systems with utmp capabilities, to # determine if a user is local to your campus or organization when # handling -restrictions=inside_foo or outside_foo settings for ftp, # news, telnet/tn3270 and rlogin URLs. An "inside" user is assumed # if your system does not have utmp capabilities. CHANGE THIS here # if it was not changed in userdefs.h at compilation time. # #LOCAL_DOMAIN:ukans.edu .h1 Session support .h2 AUTO_SESSION # If AUTO_SESSION is TRUE lynx will save/restore useful information about # your browsing history when closing/starting current lynx session if # no command-line session switches override this setting. # This setting is useful only if SESSION_FILE is defined here or in the user's # .lynxrc file. # #AUTO_SESSION:FALSE .h2 SESSION_FILE # SESSION_FILE defines the file name where lynx will store user sessions. # This setting is used only when AUTO_SESSION is true. # Note: the default setting will store/resume each session in a different # folder under same file name (if that is allowed by operating system) # when lynx is invoked from different directories. # (The current working directory may be changed inside lynx) # # If you want to use the same session file wherever you invoke Lynx, # enter the full path below, eg '/home/<username>/.lynx_session'. # # If you do not want this feature, leave the setting commented. # Users can still customize SESSION_FILE and AUTO_SESSION via # their .lynxrc file. # #SESSION_FILE:lynx_session .h2 SESSION_LIMIT # SESSION_LIMIT defines maximum number of: searched strings, goto URLs, # visited links and history entries which will be saved in session file. The # minimum allowed is 1, the maximum is 10000. # # For instance, if SESSION_LIMIT is 250, a per-session limit of 250 entries of # searched strings, goto URLs, visited links and history entries will be saved # in the session file. # # There is no fixed limit on the number of entries which can be restored; # It is limited only by available memory. # #SESSION_LIMIT:250 .h1 Character Sets .h2 CHARACTER_SET # CHARACTER_SET defines the display character set, i.e., assumed to be # installed on the user's terminal. It determines which characters or strings # will be used to represent 8-bit character entities within HTML. New # character sets may be defined as explained in the README files of the # src/chrtrans directory in the Lynx source code distribution. For Asian (CJK) # character sets, it also determines how Kanji code will be handled. The # default is defined in userdefs.h and can be changed here or via the # 'o'ptions menu. The 'o'ptions menu setting will be stored in the user's RC # file whenever those settings are saved, and thereafter will be used as the # default. For Lynx a "character set" has two names: a MIME name (for # recognizing properly labeled charset parameters in HTTP headers etc.), and a # human-readable string for the 'O'ptions Menu (so you may find info about # language or group of languages besides MIME name). Not all 'human-readable' # names correspond to exactly one valid MIME charset (example is "Chinese"); # in that case an appropriate valid (and more specific) MIME name should be # used where required. Well-known synonyms are also processed in the code. # # Raw (CJK) mode # # Lynx normally translates characters from a document's charset to display # charset, using ASSUME_CHARSET value (see below) if the document's charset # is not specified explicitly. Raw (CJK) mode is OFF for this case. # When the document charset is specified explicitly, that charset # overrides any assumption like ASSUME_CHARSET or raw (CJK) mode. # # For the Asian (CJK) display character sets, the corresponding charset is # assumed in documents, i.e., raw (CJK) mode is ON by default. In raw CJK # mode, 8-bit characters are not reverse translated in relation to the entity # conversion arrays, i.e., they are assumed to be appropriate for the display # character set. The mode should be toggled OFF when an Asian (CJK) display # character set is selected but the document is not CJK and its charset not # specified explicitly. # # Raw (CJK) mode may be toggled by user via '@' (LYK_RAW_TOGGLE) key, # the -raw command line switch or from the 'o'ptions menu. # # Raw (CJK) mode effectively changes the charset assumption about unlabeled # documents. You can toggle raw mode ON if you believe the document has a # charset which does correspond to your Display Character Set. On the other # hand, if you set ASSUME_CHARSET the same as Display Character Set you get raw # mode ON by default (but you get assume_charset=iso-8859-1 if you try raw mode # OFF after it). # # Note that "raw" does not mean that every byte will be passed to the screen. # HTML character entities may get expanded and translated, inappropriate # control characters filtered out, etc. There is a "Transparent" pseudo # character set for more "rawness". # # Since Lynx now supports a wide range of platforms it may be useful to note # the cpXXX codepages used by IBM PC compatible computers, and windows-xxxx # used by native MS-Windows apps. We also note that cpXXX pages rarely are # found on Internet, but are mostly for local needs on DOS. # # Recognized character sets include: # .nf # string for 'O'ptions Menu MIME name # =========================== ========= # 7 bit approximations (US-ASCII) us-ascii # Western (ISO-8859-1) iso-8859-1 # Western (ISO-8859-15) iso-8859-15 # Western (cp850) cp850 # Western (windows-1252) windows-1252 # IBM PC US codepage (cp437) cp437 # DEC Multinational dec-mcs # Macintosh (8 bit) macintosh # NeXT character set next # HP Roman8 hp-roman8 # Chinese euc-cn # Japanese (EUC-JP) euc-jp # Japanese (Shift_JIS) shift_jis # Korean euc-kr # Taipei (Big5) big5 # Vietnamese (VISCII) viscii # Eastern European (ISO-8859-2) iso-8859-2 # Eastern European (cp852) cp852 # Eastern European (windows-1250) windows-1250 # Latin 3 (ISO-8859-3) iso-8859-3 # Latin 4 (ISO-8859-4) iso-8859-4 # Baltic Rim (ISO-8859-13) iso-8859-13 # Baltic Rim (cp775) cp775 # Baltic Rim (windows-1257) windows-1257 # Celtic (ISO-8859-14) iso-8859-14 # Cyrillic (ISO-8859-5) iso-8859-5 # Cyrillic (cp866) cp866 # Cyrillic (windows-1251) windows-1251 # Cyrillic (KOI8-R) koi8-r # Arabic (ISO-8859-6) iso-8859-6 # Arabic (cp864) cp864 # Arabic (windows-1256) windows-1256 # Greek (ISO-8859-7) iso-8859-7 # Greek (cp737) cp737 # Greek2 (cp869) cp869 # Greek (windows-1253) windows-1253 # Hebrew (ISO-8859-8) iso-8859-8 # Hebrew (cp862) cp862 # Hebrew (windows-1255) windows-1255 # Turkish (ISO-8859-9) iso-8859-9 # North European (ISO-8859-10) iso-8859-10 # Ukrainian Cyrillic (cp866u) cp866u # Ukrainian Cyrillic (KOI8-U) koi8-u # UNICODE (UTF-8) utf-8 # RFC 1345 w/o Intro mnemonic+ascii+0 # RFC 1345 Mnemonic mnemonic # Transparent x-transparent .fi # # The value should be the MIME name of a character set recognized by # Lynx (case insensitive). # Find RFC 1345 at .url http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1345 # CHARACTER_SET:utf-8 .h2 LOCALE_CHARSET # LOCALE_CHARSET overrides CHARACTER_SET if true, using the current locale to # lookup a MIME name that corresponds, and use that as the display charset. # # Note that while nl_langinfo(CODESET) itself is standardized, the return # values and their relationship to the locale value is not. GNU libiconv # happens to give useful values, but other implementations are not guaranteed # to do this. LOCALE_CHARSET:TRUE .h2 HTML5_CHARSETS # HTML5_CHARSETS is an alternative to ASSUME_CHARSET and ASSUME_LOCAL_CHARSET. # Those assume by default that the character set of an HTML document is (as is # standard in HTML4) ISO-8859-1, in the absence of locale information. # # HTML5 introduces a "compatibility" (sic) feature which assumes that the # default is Windows 1252. In the same way, it equates ISO-8859-4 and Windows # 1254. Finally, it also makes recommendations which selectively reinterpret # the locale encoding. # # This option currently implements only the equating of ISO-8859-1 and Windows # 1252. # #HTML5_CHARSETS:FALSE .h2 ASSUME_CHARSET # ASSUME_CHARSET changes the handling of documents which do not # explicitly specify a charset. Normally Lynx assumes that 8-bit # characters in those documents are encoded according to iso-8859-1 # (the official default for the HTTP protocol). When ASSUME_CHARSET # is defined here or by an -assume_charset command line flag is in effect, # Lynx will treat documents as if they were encoded accordingly. # See above on how this interacts with "raw mode" and the Display # Character Set. # ASSUME_CHARSET can also be changed via the 'o'ptions menu but will # not be saved as permanent value in user's .lynxrc file to avoid more chaos. # #ASSUME_CHARSET:iso-8859-1 .h2 ASSUMED_DOC_CHARSET_CHOICE .h2 DISPLAY_CHARSET_CHOICE # It is possible to reduce the number of charset choices in the 'O'ptions menu # for "display charset" and "assumed document charset" fields via # DISPLAY_CHARSET_CHOICE and ASSUMED_DOC_CHARSET_CHOICE settings correspondingly. # Each of these settings can be used several times to define the set of possible # choices for corresponding field. The syntax for the values is # # string | prefix* | * # # where # # 'string' is either the MIME name of charset or it's full name (listed # either in the left or in the right column of table of # recognized charsets), case-insensitive - e.g. 'Koi8-R' or # 'Cyrillic (KOI8-R)' (both without quotes), # # 'prefix' is any string, and such value will select all charsets having # the name with prefix matching given (case insensitive), i.e., # for the charsets listed in the table of recognized charsets, # .ex # ASSUMED_DOC_CHARSET_CHOICE:cyrillic* # will be equal to specifying .ex 4 # ASSUMED_DOC_CHARSET_CHOICE:cp866 # ASSUMED_DOC_CHARSET_CHOICE:windows-1251 # ASSUMED_DOC_CHARSET_CHOICE:koi8-r # ASSUMED_DOC_CHARSET_CHOICE:iso-8859-5 # or lines with full names of charsets. # # literal string '*' (without quotes) will enable all charset choices # in corresponding field. This is useful for overriding site # defaults in private pieces of lynx.cfg included via INCLUDE # directive. # # Default values for both settings are '*', but any occurrence of settings # with values that denote any charsets will make only listed choices available # for corresponding field. #ASSUMED_DOC_CHARSET_CHOICE:* #DISPLAY_CHARSET_CHOICE:* .h2 ASSUME_LOCAL_CHARSET # ASSUME_LOCAL_CHARSET is like ASSUME_CHARSET but only applies to local # files. If no setting is given here or by an -assume_local_charset # command line option, the value for ASSUME_CHARSET or -assume_charset # is used. It works for both text/plain and text/html files. # This option will ignore "raw mode" toggling when local files are viewed # (it is "stronger" than "assume_charset" or the effective change # of the charset assumption caused by changing "raw mode"), # so only use when necessary. # #ASSUME_LOCAL_CHARSET:iso-8859-1 .h2 PREPEND_CHARSET_TO_SOURCE # PREPEND_CHARSET_TO_SOURCE:TRUE tells Lynx to prepend a META CHARSET line # to text/html source files when they are retrieved for 'd'ownloading # or passed to 'p'rint functions, so HTTP headers will not be lost. # This is necessary for resolving charset for local html files, # while the assume_local_charset is just an assumption. # For the 'd'ownload option, a META CHARSET will be added only if the HTTP # charset is present. The compilation default is TRUE. # It is generally desirable to have charset information for every local # html file, but META CHARSET string potentially could cause # compatibility problems with other browsers, see also PREPEND_BASE_TO_SOURCE. # Note that the prepending is not done for -source dumps. # #PREPEND_CHARSET_TO_SOURCE:TRUE .h2 NCR_IN_BOOKMARKS # NCR_IN_BOOKMARKS:TRUE allows you to save 8-bit characters in bookmark titles # in the unicode format (NCR). This may be useful if you need to switch # display charsets frequently. This is the case when you use Lynx on different # platforms, e.g., on UNIX and from a remote PC, and want to keep the bookmarks # file persistent. # Another aspect is compatibility: NCR is part of I18N and HTML4.0 # specifications supported starting with Lynx 2.7.2, Netscape 4.0 and MSIE 4.0. # Older browser versions will fail so keep NCR_IN_BOOKMARKS:FALSE if you # plan to use them. # #NCR_IN_BOOKMARKS:FALSE .h2 FORCE_8BIT_TOUPPER # FORCE_8BIT_TOUPPER overrides locale settings and uses internal 8-bit # case-conversion mechanism for case-insensitive searches in non-ASCII display # character sets. It is FALSE by default and should not be changed unless # you encounter problems with case-insensitive searches. # #FORCE_8BIT_TOUPPER:FALSE .h2 OUTGOING_MAIL_CHARSET # While Lynx supports different platforms and display character sets # we need to limit the charset in outgoing mail to reduce # trouble for remote recipients who may not recognize our charset. # You may try US-ASCII as the safest value (7 bit), any other MIME name, # or leave this field blank (default) to use the display character set. # Charset translations currently are implemented for mail "subjects= " only. # #OUTGOING_MAIL_CHARSET: .h2 ASSUME_UNREC_CHARSET # If Lynx encounters a charset parameter it doesn't recognize, it will # replace the value given by ASSUME_UNREC_CHARSET (or a corresponding # -assume_unrec_charset command line option) for it. This can be used # to deal with charsets unknown to Lynx, if they are "sufficiently # similar" to one that Lynx does know about, by forcing the same # treatment. There is no default, and you probably should leave this # undefined unless necessary. # #ASSUME_UNREC_CHARSET:iso-8859-1 .h2 PREFERRED_LANGUAGE # PREFERRED_LANGUAGE is the language in MIME notation (e.g., "en", # "fr") which will be indicated by Lynx in its Accept-Language headers # as the preferred language. If available, the document will be # transmitted in that language. Users can override this setting via # the 'o'ptions menu and save that preference in their RC file. # This may be a comma-separated list of languages in decreasing preference. # #PREFERRED_LANGUAGE:en .h2 PREFERRED_CHARSET # PREFERRED_CHARSET specifies the character set in MIME notation (e.g., # "ISO-8859-2", "ISO-8859-5") which Lynx will indicate you prefer in # requests to http servers using an Accept-Charsets header. Users can # change it via the 'o'ptions menu and save that preference in their RC file. # The value should NOT include "ISO-8859-1" or "US-ASCII", # since those values are always assumed by default. # If a file in that character set is available, the server will send it. # If no Accept-Charset header is present, the default is that any # character set is acceptable. If an Accept-Charset header is present, # and if the server cannot send a response which is acceptable # according to the Accept-Charset header, then the server SHOULD send # an error response with the 406 (not acceptable) status code, though # the sending of an unacceptable response is also allowed. See RFC 2068 .url http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2068 # #PREFERRED_CHARSET: .h2 CHARSETS_DIRECTORY # CHARSETS_DIRECTORY specifies the directory with the fonts (glyph data) # used by Lynx to switch the display-font to a font best suited for the # given document. The font should be in a format understood by the # platforms TTY-display-font-switching API. Currently supported on OS/2 only. # # Lynx expects the glyphs for the charset CHARSET with character cell # size HHHxWWW to be stored in a file HHHxWWW/CHARSET.fnt inside the directory # specified by CHARSETS_DIRECTORY. E.g., the font for koi8-r sized 14x9 # should be in the file 14x9/koi8-r.fnt. # #CHARSETS_DIRECTORY: .h2 CHARSET_SWITCH_RULES # CHARSET_SWITCH_RULES hints lynx on how to choose the best display font given # the document encoding. This string is a sequence of chunks, each chunk # having the following form: # # IN_CHARSET1 IN_CHARSET2 ... IN_CHARSET5 :OUT_CHARSET # # For readability, one may insert arbitrary additional punctuation (anything # but : is ignored). E.g., if lynx is able to switch only to display charsets # cp866, cp850, cp852, and cp862, then the following setting may be useful # (split for readability): # # CHARSET_SWITCH_RULES: koi8-r ISO-8859-5 windows-1251 cp866u KOI8-U :cp866, # iso-8859-1 windows-1252 ISO-8859-15 :cp850, # ISO-8859-2 windows-1250 :cp852, # ISO-8859-8 windows-1255 :cp862 # #CHARSET_SWITCH_RULES: .h1 Interaction .h2 URL_DOMAIN_PREFIXES .h2 URL_DOMAIN_SUFFIXES # URL_DOMAIN_PREFIXES and URL_DOMAIN_SUFFIXES are strings which will be # prepended (together with a scheme://) and appended to the first element # of command line or 'g'oto arguments which are not complete URLs and # cannot be opened as a local file (file://localhost/string). Both # can be comma-separated lists. Each prefix must end with a dot, each # suffix must begin with a dot, and either may contain other dots (e.g., # .com.jp). The default lists are defined in userdefs.h and can be # replaced here. Each prefix will be used with each suffix, in order, # until a valid Internet host is created, based on a successful DNS # lookup (e.g., foo will be tested as www.foo.com and then www.foo.edu # etc.). The first element can include a :port and/or /path which will # be restored with the expanded host (e.g., wfbr:8002/dir/lynx will # become http://www.wfbr.edu:8002/dir/lynx). The prefixes will not be # used if the first element ends in a dot (or has a dot before the # :port or /path), and similarly the suffixes will not be used if the # the first element begins with a dot (e.g., .nyu.edu will become # http://www.nyu.edu without testing www.nyu.com). Lynx will try to # guess the scheme based on the first field of the expanded host name, # and use "http://" as the default (e.g., gopher.wfbr.edu or gopher.wfbr. # will be made gopher://gopher.wfbr.edu). # #URL_DOMAIN_PREFIXES:www. #URL_DOMAIN_SUFFIXES:.com,.edu,.net,.org .h2 FORMS_OPTIONS # Toggle whether the Options Menu is key-based or form-based; # the key-based version is available only if specified at compile time. #FORMS_OPTIONS:TRUE .h2 PARTIAL # Display partial pages while downloading #PARTIAL:TRUE .h2 PARTIAL_THRES # Set the threshold # of lines Lynx must render before it # redraws the screen in PARTIAL mode.

"Kilobytes" denotes 1024 bytes: # NONE to disable the display of transfer rate altogether. # TRUE or KB for Kilobytes/second. # FALSE or BYTES for bytes/second. # KB,ETA to show Kilobytes/second with estimated completion time. # BYTES,ETA to show BYTES/second with estimated completion time. # KB2,ETA to show Kilobytes/second with estimated completion time using 2-digits. # BYTES2,ETA to show BYTES/second with estimated completion time using 2-digits. # Note that the "ETA" values are available if USE_READPROGRESS was defined. #SHOW_KB_RATE:TRUE .h2 SHOW_KB_NAME # Set the abbreviation for Kilobytes (1024). # Quoting from .url http://www.romulus2.com/articles/guides/misc/bitsbytes.shtml # In December 1998, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) # approved a new IEC International Standard. Instead of using the metric # prefixes for multiples in binary code, the new IEC standard invented specific # prefixes for binary multiples made up of only the first two letters of the # metric prefixes and adding the first two letters of the word "binary". Thus, # for instance, instead of Kilobyte (KB) or Gigabyte (GB), the new terms would # be kibibyte (KiB) or gibibyte (GiB). # # If you prefer using the conventional (and more common) "KB", modify this # setting. #SHOW_KB_NAME:KiB .h1 Timeouts .h2 INFOSECS .h2 MESSAGESECS .h2 ALERTSECS .h2 NO_PAUSE # The following definitions set the number of seconds for # pauses following statusline messages that would otherwise be # replaced immediately, and are more important than the unpaused # progress messages. Those set by INFOSECS are also basically # progress messages (e.g., that a prompted input has been canceled) # and should have the shortest pause. Those set by MESSAGESECS are # informational (e.g., that a function is disabled) and should have # a pause of intermediate duration. Those set by ALERTSECS typically # report a serious problem and should be paused long enough to read # whenever they appear (typically unexpectedly). The default values # are defined in userdefs.h, and can be modified here should longer # pauses be desired for braille-based access to Lynx. # # SVr4-curses implementations support time delays in milliseconds, # hence the value may be given shorter, e.g., 0.5 # # Use the NO_PAUSE option (like the command-line -nopause) to override # all of the delay times. # #INFOSECS:1 #MESSAGESECS:2 #ALERTSECS:3 #NO_PAUSE:FALSE .h2 DEBUGSECS # Set DEBUGSECS to a nonzero value to slow down progress messages # (see "-delay" option). #DEBUGSECS:0 .h2 REPLAYSECS # Set REPLAYSECS to a nonzero value to allow for slow replaying of # command scripts (see "-cmd_script" option). #REPLAYSECS:0 .h1 Appearance # These settings control the appearance of Lynx's screen and the way # Lynx renders some tags. .h2 USE_SELECT_POPUPS # If USE_SELECT_POPUPS is set FALSE, Lynx will present a vertical list of # radio buttons for the OPTIONs in SELECT blocks which lack the MULTIPLE # attribute, instead of using a popup menu. Note that if the MULTIPLE # attribute is present in the SELECT start tag, Lynx always will create a # vertical list of checkboxes for the OPTIONs. # The default defined here or in userdefs.h can be changed via the 'o'ptions # menu and saved in the RC file, and always can be toggled via the -popup # command line switch. # #USE_SELECT_POPUPS:TRUE .h2 SHOW_CURSOR # SHOW_CURSOR controls whether or not the cursor is hidden or appears # over the current link in documents or the current option in popups. # Showing the cursor is handy if you are a sighted user with a poor # terminal that can't do bold and reverse video at the same time or # at all. It also can be useful to blind users, as an alternative # or supplement to setting LINKS_AND_FIELDS_ARE_NUMBERED or # LINKS_ARE_NUMBERED. # The default defined here or in userdefs.h can be changed via the # 'o'ptions menu and saved in the RC file, and always can be toggled # via the -show_cursor command line switch. # #SHOW_CURSOR:FALSE .h2 UNDERLINE_LINKS # UNDERLINE_LINKS controls whether links are underlined by default, or shown # in bold. Normally this default is set from the configure script. # #UNDERLINE_LINKS:FALSE .h2 BOLD_HEADERS # If BOLD_HEADERS is set to TRUE the HT_BOLD default style will be acted # upon for <H1> through <H6> headers. The compilation default is FALSE # (only the indentation styles are acted upon, but see BOLD_H1, below). # On Unix, compilation with -DUNDERLINE_LINKS also will apply to the # HT_BOLD style for headers when BOLD_HEADERS is TRUE. # #BOLD_HEADERS:FALSE .h2 BOLD_H1 # If BOLD_H1 is set to TRUE the HT_BOLD default style will be acted # upon for <H1> headers even if BOLD_HEADERS is FALSE.

The compilation default is FALSE. # On Unix, compilation with -DUNDERLINE_LINKS also will apply to the # HT_BOLD style for NAME (ID) anchors when BOLD_NAME_ANCHORS is TRUE. # #BOLD_NAME_ANCHORS:FALSE .h1 Internal Behavior .h2 DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE .h2 DEFAULT_VIRTUAL_MEMORY_SIZE # The DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE specifies the number of WWW documents to be # cached in memory at one time. # # This so-called cache size (actually, number) is defined in userdefs.h and # may be modified here and/or with the command line argument -cache=NUMBER # The minimum allowed value is 2, for the current document and at least one # to fetch, and there is no absolute maximum number of cached documents. # On Unix, and VMS not compiled with VAXC, whenever the number is exceeded # the least recently displayed document will be removed from memory. # # On VMS compiled with VAXC, the DEFAULT_VIRTUAL_MEMORY_SIZE specifies the # amount (bytes) of virtual memory that can be allocated and not yet be freed # before previous documents are removed from memory. If the values for both # the DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE and DEFAULT_VIRTUAL_MEMORY_SIZE are exceeded, then # the least recently displayed documents will be freed until one or the other # value is no longer exceeded. The default value is defined in userdefs.h. # # The Unix and VMS (but not VAXC) implementations use the C library malloc's # and calloc's for memory allocation, but procedures for taking the actual # amount of cache into account still need to be developed. They use only # the DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE value, and that specifies the absolute maximum # number of documents to cache (rather than the maximum number only if # DEFAULT_VIRTUAL_MEMORY_SIZE has been exceeded, as with VAXC/VAX). # #DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE:10 #DEFAULT_VIRTUAL_MEMORY_SIZE:512000 .h2 SOURCE_CACHE # SOURCE_CACHE sets the source caching behavior for Lynx: # FILE causes Lynx to keep a temporary file for each cached document # containing the HTML source of the document, which it uses to regenerate # the document when certain settings are changed (for instance, # historical vs. minimal vs. valid comment parsing) instead of reloading # the source from the network. # MEMORY is like FILE, except the document source is kept in memory. You # may wish to adjust DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE and DEFAULT_VIRTUAL_MEMORY_SIZE # accordingly. # NONE is the default; the document source is not cached, and is reloaded # from the network when needed. # #SOURCE_CACHE:NONE .h2 SOURCE_CACHE_FOR_ABORTED # This setting controls what will happen with cached source for the document # being fetched from the net if fetching was aborted (either user pressed # 'z' or network went down). If set to KEEP, the source fetched so far will # be preserved (and used as cache), if set to DROP lynx will drop the # source cache for that document (i.e. only completely downloaded documents # will be cached in that case). #SOURCE_CACHE_FOR_ABORTED:DROP .h2 ALWAYS_RESUBMIT_POSTS # If ALWAYS_RESUBMIT_POSTS is set TRUE, Lynx always will resubmit forms # with method POST, dumping any cache from a previous submission of the # form, including when the document returned by that form is sought with # the PREV_DOC command or via the history list. Lynx always resubmits # forms with method POST when a submit button or a submitting text input # is activated, but normally retrieves the previously returned document # if it had links which you activated, and then go back with the PREV_DOC # command or via the history list. # # The default defined here or in userdefs.h can be toggled via # the -resubmit_forms command line switch. # #ALWAYS_RESUBMIT_POSTS:FALSE .h2 TRIM_INPUT_FIELDS # If TRIM_INPUT_FIELDS is set TRUE, Lynx will trim trailing whitespace (e.g., # space, tab, carriage return, line feed and form feed) from the text entered # into form text and textarea fields. Older versions of Lynx do this trimming # unconditionally, but other browsers do not, which would yield different # behavior for CGI scripts. #TRIM_INPUT_FIELDS:FALSE .h1 HTML Parsing .h2 NO_ISMAP_IF_USEMAP # If NO_ISMAP_IF_USEMAP is set TRUE, Lynx will not include a link to the # server-side image map if both a server-side and client-side map for the # same image is indicated in the HTML markup. The compilation default is # FALSE, such that a link with "[ISMAP]" as the link name, followed by a # hyphen, will be prepended to the ALT string or "[USEMAP]" pseudo-ALT for # accessing Lynx's text-based rendition of the client-side map (based on # the content of the associated MAP element). If the "[ISMAP]" link is # activated, Lynx will send a 0,0 coordinate pair to the server, which # Lynx-friendly sites can map to a for-text-client document, homologous # to what is intended for the content of a FIG element. # # The compilation default, or default defined here, can be toggled via # the "-ismap" command line switch. # #NO_ISMAP_IF_USEMAP:FALSE .h2 SEEK_FRAG_MAP_IN_CUR # If SEEK_FRAG_MAP_IN_CUR is set FALSE, then USEMAP attribute values # (in IMG or OBJECT tags) consisting of only a fragment (USEMAP="#foo") # will be resolved with respect to the current document's base, which # might not be the same as the current document's URL. # The compilation default is to use the current document's URL in all # cases (i.e., assume the MAP is present below, if it wasn't present # above the point in the HTML stream where the USEMAP attribute was # detected). Lynx's present "single pass" rendering engine precludes # checking below before making the decision on how to resolve a USEMAP # reference consisting solely of a fragment. # #SEEK_FRAG_MAP_IN_CUR:TRUE .h2 SEEK_FRAG_AREA_IN_CUR # If SEEK_FRAG_AREA_IN_CUR is set FALSE, then HREF attribute values # in AREA tags consisting of only a fragment (HREF="#foo") will be # resolved with respect to the current document's base, which might # not be the same as the current document's URL. The compilation # default is to use the current document's URL, as is done for the # HREF attribute values of Anchors and LINKs that consist solely of # a fragment. # #SEEK_FRAG_AREA_IN_CUR:TRUE .h1 CGI scripts # These settings control Lynx's ability to execute various types of scripts. .h2 LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ALWAYS_ON .h2 LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ON_BUT_NOT_REMOTE # Local execution links and scripts are by default completely disabled, # unless a change is made to the userdefs.h file to enable them or # the configure script is used with the corresponding options # (--enable-exec-links and --enable-exec-scripts). # See the Lynx source code distribution and the userdefs.h # file for more detail on enabling execution links and scripts. # # If you have enabled execution links or scripts the following # two variables control Lynx's action when an execution link # or script is encountered. # # If LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ALWAYS_ON is set to TRUE any execution # link or script will be executed no matter where it came from. # This is EXTREMELY dangerous. Since Lynx can access files from # anywhere in the world, you may encounter links or scripts that # will cause damage or compromise the security of your system. # # If LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ON_BUT_NOT_REMOTE is set to TRUE only # links or scripts that reside on the local machine and are # referenced with a URL beginning with "file://localhost/" or meet # TRUSTED_EXEC or ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC rules (see below) will be # executed. This is much less dangerous than enabling all execution # links, but can still be dangerous. # #LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ALWAYS_ON:FALSE #LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ON_BUT_NOT_REMOTE:FALSE .h2 TRUSTED_EXEC # If LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINK_ON_BUT_NOT_REMOTE is TRUE, and no TRUSTED_EXEC # rule is defined, it defaults to "file://localhost/" and any lynxexec # or lynxprog command will be permitted if it was referenced from within # a document whose URL begins with that string. If you wish to restrict the # referencing URLs further, you can extend the string to include a trusted # path. You also can specify a trusted directory for http URLs, which will # then be treated as if they were local rather than remote. For example: # # TRUSTED_EXEC:file://localhost/trusted/ # TRUSTED_EXEC:http://www.wfbr.edu/trusted/ # # If you also wish to restrict the commands which can be executed, create # a series of rules with the path (Unix) or command name (VMS) following # the string, separated by a tab. For example: # # Unix: # ==== # TRUSTED_EXEC:file://localhost/<tab>/bin/cp # TRUSTED_EXEC:file://localhost/<tab>/bin/rm # VMS: # === # TRUSTED_EXEC:file://localhost/<tab>copy # TRUSTED_EXEC:file://localhost/<tab>delete # # Once you specify a TRUSTED_EXEC referencing string, the default is # replaced, and all the referencing strings you desire must be specified # as a series. Similarly, if you associate a command with the referencing # string, you must specify all of the allowable commands as a series of # TRUSTED_EXEC rules for that string. If you specify ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC # rules below, you need not repeat them as TRUSTED_EXEC rules. # # If EXEC_LINKS and JUMPFILE have been defined, any lynxexec or lynxprog # URLs in that file will be permitted, regardless of other settings. If # you also set LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ON_BUT_NOT_REMOTE:TRUE and a single # TRUSTED_EXEC rule that will always fail (e.g., "none"), then *ONLY* the # lynxexec or lynxprog URLs in JUMPFILE (and any ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC rules, # see below) will be allowed. Note, however, that if Lynx was compiled with # CAN_ANONYMOUS_JUMP set to FALSE (default is TRUE), or -restrictions=jump # is included with the -anonymous switch at run time, then users of an # anonymous account will not be able to access the jumps file or enter # 'j'ump shortcuts, and this selective execution feature will be overridden # as well (i.e., they will only be able to access lynxexec or lynxprog # URLs which meet any ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC rules). # #TRUSTED_EXEC:none .h2 ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC # If EXEC_LINKS was defined, any lynxexec or lynxprog URL can be made # always enabled by an ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC rule for it. This is useful for # anonymous accounts in which you have disabled execution links generally, # and may also have disabled jumps file links, but still want to allow # execution of particular utility scripts or programs. The format is # like that for TRUSTED_EXEC. For example: # # Unix: # ==== # ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC:file://localhost/<tab>/usr/local/kinetic/bin/usertime # ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC:http://www.more.net/<tab>/usr/local/kinetic/bin/who.sh # VMS: # === # ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC:file://localhost/<tab>usertime # ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC:http://www.more.net/<tab>show users # # The default ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC rule is "none". # #ALWAYS_TRUSTED_EXEC:none .h2 TRUSTED_LYNXCGI # Unix: # ===== # TRUSTED_LYNXCGI rules define the permitted sources and/or paths for # lynxcgi links (if LYNXCGI_LINKS is defined in userdefs.h). The format # is the same as for TRUSTED_EXEC rules (see above). Example rules: # # TRUSTED_LYNXCGI:file://localhost/ # TRUSTED_LYNXCGI:<tab>/usr/local/etc/httpd/cgi-bin/ # TRUSTED_LYNXCGI:file://localhost/<tab>/usr/local/www/cgi-bin/ # # VMS: # ==== # Do not define this. # # The default TRUSTED_LYNXCGI rule is "none". # TRUSTED_LYNXCGI:none .h2 LYNXCGI_ENVIRONMENT # Unix: # ===== # LYNXCGI_ENVIRONMENT adds the current value of the specified # environment variable to the list of environment variables passed on to the # lynxcgi script. Useful variables are HOME, USER, etc... If proxies # are in use, and the script invokes another copy of lynx (or a program like # wget) in a subsidiary role, it can be useful to add http_proxy and other # *_proxy variables. # # VMS: # ==== # Do not define this. # #LYNXCGI_ENVIRONMENT: .h2 LYNXCGI_DOCUMENT_ROOT # Unix: # ===== # LYNXCGI_DOCUMENT_ROOT is the value of DOCUMENT_ROOT that will be passed # to lynxcgi scripts. If set and the URL has PATH_INFO data, then # PATH_TRANSLATED will also be generated. Examples: # LYNXCGI_DOCUMENT_ROOT:/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs # LYNXCGI_DOCUMENT_ROOT:/data/htdocs/ # # VMS: # ==== # Do not define this. # #LYNXCGI_DOCUMENT_ROOT: .h1 Cookies .h2 FORCE_SSL_COOKIES_SECURE # If FORCE_SSL_COOKIES_SECURE is set to TRUE, then SSL encrypted cookies # received from https servers never will be sent unencrypted to http # servers. The compilation default is to impose this block only if the # https server included a secure attribute for the cookie. The normal # default or that defined here can be toggled via the -force_secure # command line switch. # #FORCE_SSL_COOKIES_SECURE:FALSE .h1 Internal Behavior .h2 MAIL_SYSTEM_ERROR_LOGGING # MAIL_SYSTEM_ERROR_LOGGING will send a message to the owner of # the information, or ALERTMAIL if there is no owner, every time # that a document cannot be accessed! # # NOTE: This can generate A LOT of mail, be warned. # #MAIL_SYSTEM_ERROR_LOGGING:FALSE .h2 CHECKMAIL # If CHECKMAIL is set to TRUE, the user will be informed (via a statusline # message) about the existence of any unread mail at startup of Lynx, and # will get statusline messages if subsequent new mail arrives. If a jumps # file with a lynxprog URL for invoking mail is available, or your html # pages include an mail launch file URL, the user thereby can access mail # and read the messages. The checks and statusline reports will not be # performed if Lynx has been invoked with the -restrictions=mail switch. # # VMS USERS !!! # ============= # New mail is normally broadcast as it arrives, via "unsolicited screen # broadcasts", which can be "wiped" from the Lynx display via the Ctrl-W # command. You may prefer to disable the broadcasts and use CHECKMAIL # instead (e.g., in a public account which will be used by people who # are ignorant about VMS). # #CHECKMAIL:FALSE .h1 News-groups .h2 NNTPSERVER # To enable news reading ability via Lynx, the environment variable NNTPSERVER # must be set so that it points to your site's NNTP server # (see Lynx Users Guide on environment variables). # Lynx respects RFC 1738 .url http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1738 # and does not accept a host field in news URLs (use nntp: instead of news: for # the scheme if you wish to specify an NNTP host in a URL, as explained in the # RFC). If you have not set the variable externally, you can set it at run # time via this configuration file. It will not override an external setting. # Note that on VMS it is set as a process logical rather than symbol, and will # outlive the Lynx image. # The news reading facility in Lynx is quite limited. Lynx does not provide a # full featured news reader with elaborate error checking and safety features. # #NNTPSERVER:news.server.dom .h2 LIST_NEWS_NUMBERS # If LIST_NEWS_NUMBERS is set TRUE, Lynx will use an ordered list and include # the numbers of articles in news listings, instead of using an unordered # list. The default is defined in userdefs.h, and can be overridden here. # #LIST_NEWS_NUMBERS:FALSE .h2 LIST_NEWS_DATES # If LIST_NEWS_DATES is set TRUE, Lynx will include the dates of articles in # news listings. The dates always are included in the articles, themselves. # The default is defined in userdefs.h, and can be overridden here. # #LIST_NEWS_DATES:FALSE .h2 NEWS_CHUNK_SIZE .h2 NEWS_MAX_CHUNK # NEWS_CHUNK_SIZE and NEWS_MAX_CHUNK regulate the chunking of news article # listings with inclusion of links for listing earlier and/or later articles. # The defaults are defined in HTNews.c as 30 and 40, respectively. If the # news group contains more than NEWS_MAX_CHUNK articles, they will be listed # in NEWS_CHUNK_SIZE chunks. You can change the defaults here, and/or on # the command line via -newschunksize=NUMBER and/or -newsmaxchunk=NUMBER # switches. Note that if the chunk size is increased, here or on the command # line, to a value greater than the current maximum, the maximum will be # increased to that number. Conversely, if the maximum is set to a number # less than the current chunk size, the chunk size will be reduced to that # number. Thus, you need use only one of the two switches on the command # line, based on the direction of intended change relative to the compilation # or configuration defaults. The compilation defaults ensure that there will # be at least 10 earlier articles before bothering to chunk and create a link # for earlier articles. # #NEWS_CHUNK_SIZE:30 #NEWS_MAX_CHUNK:40 .h2 NEWS_POSTING # Set NEWS_POSTING to FALSE if you do not want to support posting to # news groups via Lynx. If left TRUE, Lynx will use its news gateway to # post new messages or followups to news groups, using the URL schemes # described in the "Supported URLs" section of the online 'h'elp. The # posts will be attempted via the nntp server specified in the URL, or # if none was specified, via the NNTPSERVER configuration or environment # variable. Links with these URLs for posting or sending followups are # created by the news gateway when reading group listings or articles # from nntp servers if the server indicates that it permits posting. # The compilation default set in userdefs.h can be changed here. If # the default is TRUE, posting can still be disallowed via the # -restrictions command line switch. # The posting facility in Lynx is quite limited. Lynx does not provide a # full featured news poster with elaborate error checking and safety features. # #NEWS_POSTING:TRUE .h2 LYNX_SIG_FILE # LYNX_SIG_FILE defines the name of a file containing a signature which # can be appended to email messages and news postings or followups. The # user will be prompted whether to append it. It is sought in the home # directory. If it is in a subdirectory, begin it with a dot-slash # (e.g., ./lynx/.lynxsig). The definition is set in userdefs.h and can # be changed here. # #LYNX_SIG_FILE:.lynxsig .h1 Bibliographic Protocol (bibp scheme) .h2 BIBP_GLOBAL_SERVER # BIBP_GLOBAL_SERVER is the default global server for bibp: links, used # when a local bibhost or document-specified citehost is unavailable. # Set in userdefs.h and can be changed here. #BIBP_GLOBAL_SERVER:http://usin.org/ .h2 BIBP_BIBHOST # BIBP_BIBHOST is the URL at which local bibp service may be found, if # it exists. Defaults to http://bibhost/ for protocol conformance, but # may be overridden here or via --bibhost parameter. #BIBP_BIBHOST:http://bibhost/ .h1 Interaction # These settings control interaction of the user with lynx. .h2 SCROLLBAR # If SCROLLBAR is set TRUE, Lynx will show scrollbar on windows. With mouse # enabled, the scrollbar strip outside the bar is clickable, and scrolls the # window by pages. The appearance of the scrollbar can be changed from # LYNX_LSS file: define attributes scroll.bar, scroll.back (for the bar, and # for the strip along which the scrollbar moves). #SCROLLBAR:FALSE .h2 SCROLLBAR_ARROW # If SCROLLBAR_ARROW is set TRUE, Lynx's scrollbar will have arrows at the # ends. With mouse enabled, the arrows are clickable, and scroll the window by # 2 lines. The appearance of the scrollbar arrows can be changed from LYNX_LSS # file: define attributes scroll.arrow, scroll.noarrow (for enabled-arrows, # and disabled arrows). An arrow is "disabled" if the bar is at this end of # the strip. #SCROLLBAR_ARROW:TRUE .h2 USE_MOUSE # If Lynx is configured with ncurses, PDcurses or slang & USE_MOUSE is TRUE, # users can perform commands by left-clicking certain parts of the screen: # on a link = `g'oto + ACTIVATE (i.e., move highlight & follow the link); # on the top/bottom lines = PREV/NEXT_PAGE (i.e., go up/down 1 page); # on the top/bottom left corners = PREV/NEXT_DOC (i.e., go to the previous # document / undo goto previous document); # on the top/bottom right corners = HISTORY/VLINKS (i.e., call up the history # page or visited links page if on history page). # NB if the mouse is defined in this way, it will not be available # for copy/paste operations using the clipboard of a desktop manager: # for flexibility instead, use the command-line switch -use_mouse . # # ncurses and slang have built-in support for the xterm mouse protocol. In # addition, ncurses can be linked with the gpm mouse library, to automatically # provide support for this interface in applications such as Lynx. (Please # read the ncurses faq to work around broken gpm configurations packaged by # some distributors). PDCurses implements mouse support for win32 console # windows, as does slang. #USE_MOUSE:FALSE .h1 HTML Parsing # These settings control the way Lynx parses invalid HTML # and how it may resolve such issues. .h2 COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS # If COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS is set FALSE, Lynx will not collapse serial BR tags. # If set TRUE, two or more concurrent BRs will be collapsed into a single # line break. Note that the valid way to insert extra blank lines in HTML # is via a PRE block with only newlines in the block. # #COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS:TRUE .h2 TAGSOUP # If TAGSOUP is set, Lynx uses the "Tag Soup DTD" rather than "SortaSGML". # The two approaches differ by the style of error detection and recovery. # Tag Soup DTD allows for improperly nested tags; SortaSGML is stricter. #TAGSOUP:FALSE .h1 Cookies .h2 SET_COOKIES # If SET_COOKIES is set FALSE, Lynx will ignore Set-Cookie headers # in http server replies. Note that if a COOKIE_FILE is in use (see # below) that contains cookies at startup, Lynx will still send those # persistent cookies in requests as appropriate. Setting SET_COOKIES # to FALSE just prevents accepting any new cookies from servers. To # prevent all cookie processing (sending *and* receiving) in a session, # make sure that PERSISTENT_COOKIES is not TRUE or that COOKIE_FILE does # not point to a file with cookies, in addition to setting SET_COOKIES # to FALSE. # The default is defined in userdefs.h, and can be overridden here, # and/or toggled via the -cookies command line switch. # #SET_COOKIES:TRUE .h2 ACCEPT_ALL_COOKIES # If ACCEPT_ALL_COOKIES is set TRUE, Lynx will accept cookies from all # domains with no user interaction. This is equivalent to automatically # replying to all cookie 'Allow?' prompts with 'A'lways. Note that it # does not preempt validity checking, which has to be controlled separately # (see below). # The default is defined in userdefs.h and can be overridden here, or # in the .lynxrc file via an o(ptions) screen setting.

This need not strictly # be a file extension as understood by the OS, a dot # has to be given explicitly if it is indented, for # some uses one could even match full filenames here. # In addition, two forms are special: "*.*" and "*" # refer to the defaults for otherwise unmatched files # (the first for filenames with a dot somewhere in # the name, the second without), these are currently # mapped to text/plain in the (HTInit.c) built-in code. # Lynx compares the file-extensions ignoring case. # # <mime type> a MIME content type. It can also contain a charset # parameter, see example below. This should be given in # all lowercase, use <description> for more fancy labels. # It can be left empty if an HTTP style encoding is given. # # Fields in addition to the usual ones are # # <encoding> either a mail style trivial encoding (7bit, 8bit, binary) # which could be used on some systems to determine how to # open local files (currently it isn't), and is used to # determine transfer mode for some FTP URLs; or a HTTP style # content encoding (gzip (equivalent to x-gzip), compress) # # <quality> a floating point quality factor, usually between 0.0 and 1.0 # currently unused in most situations. # # <description> text that can appear in FTP directory listings, and in # local directory listings (see LIST_FORMAT, code %t) # # For instance the following definition maps the # extension ".gif" to the mime type "image/gif" .ex # SUFFIX:.gif:image/gif # # The following can be used if you have a convention to label # HTML files in some character set that differs from your local # default (see also ASSUME_LOCAL_CHARSET) with a different # extension, here ".html-u8".

If not defined, or defined as # a zero-length string ("") or "none" (case-insensitive), the support # will be disabled. It will also be disabled if the -nobrowse or # -selective switches are used, or if the file_url restriction is set. # # When enabled, the DIRED_MENU command (normally 'f' or 'F') will invoke # CSwing, normally with the current default directory as an argument to # position the user on that node of the directory tree.

This is # useful for browsing large directories that take some time to read and format. # An update can still always be forced with the RELOAD key, and specific DIRED # actions may cause a refresh anyway. Set the value to 1 to force regeneration # after commands that usually change the directory or some files and would make # the displayed info stale, like EDIT and REMOVE. Set it to 2 (the default) or # greater to force regeneration even after leaving the displayed directory # listing by some action that usually causes no change, like GOTO or entering a # file with the ACTIVATE key. This option is only honored in DIRED mode (i.e. # when lynx is compiled with DIRED_SUPPORT and it is not disabled with a # -restriction).

If NONRESTARTING_SIGWINCH is set to TRUE, # and the sigaction interface is available on the system, the handler # is installed as 'non-restarting'. On some systems (depending on the # library used for handling keyboard input, e.g. ncurses), this allows # more immediate notification of window size change events. If the value # is set to FALSE, the signal() interface is used; this normally makes # the handler 'restarting', with the effect that lynx can react to size # changes only after some key is pressed. The value can also be set to # XWINDOWS; this is equivalent to TRUE when the user has the environment # variable DISPLAY defined *at program start*, and equivalent to FALSE # otherwise. The non-restarting behavior can also be changed to TRUE # or FALSE with the -nonrestarting_sigwinch switch, which overrides the # value in this file. # # Note that Lynx never re-parses document text purely as a result of a # window size change, so text lines may appear truncated after narrowing # the window, until the document is reloaded with ^R or a similar key # or until a different text is loaded. # # The default is FALSE since there is a possibility that non-restarting # interrupts may be mis-interpreted as fatal input errors in some # configurations (leading to an abrupt program exit), and since this # option is useful mostly only for users running Lynx under xterm or a # similar X terminal emulator. On systems where the preconditions don't # apply this option is ignored. # #NONRESTARTING_SIGWINCH:FALSE .h2 NO_FORCED_CORE_DUMP # Unix ONLY: #=========== # If NO_FORCED_CORE_DUMP is set to TRUE, Lynx will not force # core dumps via abort() calls on fatal errors or assert() # calls to check potentially fatal errors. The compilation # default normally is FALSE, and can be changed here. The # compilation or configuration default can be toggled via # the -core command line switch. # Note that this setting cannot be used to prevent core dumps # with certainty. If this is important, means provided by the # operating system or kernel should be used. # #NO_FORCED_CORE_DUMP:FALSE .h1 Appearance .h2 COLOR # COLORS (only available if compiled with SVr4 curses or slang) # # The line must be of the form: # # COLOR:Integer:Foreground:Background .nf # # The Integer value is interpreted as follows: # 0 - normal - normal text # 1 - bold - hyperlinks, see also BOLD_* options above # 2 - reverse - statusline # 3 - bold + reverse (not used) # 4 - underline - text emphasis (EM, I, B tags etc.) # 5 - bold + underline - hyperlinks within text emphasis # 6 - reverse + underline - currently selected hyperlink # 7 - reverse + underline + bold - WHEREIS search hits # # Each Foreground and Background value must be one of: # black red green brown # blue magenta cyan lightgray # gray brightred brightgreen yellow # brightblue brightmagenta brightcyan white .fi # or (if you have configured using --enable-default-colors with ncurses or # slang), "default" may be used for foreground and background. # # Note that in most cases a white background is really "lightgray", since # terminals generally do not implement bright backgrounds. # # Uncomment and change any of the compilation defaults. # #COLOR:0:black:white #COLOR:1:blue:white #COLOR:2:yellow:blue #COLOR:3:green:white #COLOR:4:magenta:white #COLOR:5:blue:white #COLOR:6:red:white COLOR:6:brightred:black #COLOR:7:magenta:cyan .h2 COLOR_STYLE # Also known as "lss" (lynx style-sheet), the color-style file assigns color # combination to tags and combinations of tags. Normally a non-empty value # is compiled into lynx, and the user can override that using the -lss # command-line option. The configure script allows one to compile in an # empty string. If lynx finds no value for this setting, it simulates the # non-color-style assignments using the COLOR settings. # # If neither the command-line "-lss" or this COLOR_STYLE setting are given, # lynx tries the environment variables "LYNX_LSS" and "lynx_lss". If neither # is set, lynx uses the compiled-in value (which as noted, may be empty). # #COLOR_STYLE: lynx.lss .h2 NESTED_TABLES # This is an experimental feature for improving table layout. # It is enabled by default when the COLOR_STYLE configuration is used, # and false otherwise. # #NESTED_TABLES: true .h2 ASSUMED_COLOR # If built with a library that recognizes default colors (usually ncurses or # slang), and if the corresponding option is compiled into lynx, lynx # initializes it to assume the corresponding foreground and background colors. # Default colors are those that the terminal (emulator) itself is initialized # to. For instance, you might have an xterm running with black text on a white # background, and want lynx to display colored text on the white background, # but leave the possibility of using the same configuration to draw colored # text on a different xterm, this time using its background set to black. # # If built with conventional SVr3/SVr4 curses, tells lynx to use color pair 0 # when the given colors match this setting. That gives a similar effect, # though not as flexible. You will get the best results by setting the # terminal's default colors to match the prevailing text and background colors # that you have setup with lynx, and then alter the ASSUMED_COLOR setting to # match that. If you do not alter the ASSUMED_COLOR setting, curses assumes # color pair 0's background is black, which implies that its foreground (text) # is white. # # The first value given is the foreground, the second is the background. #ASSUMED_COLOR:default:default .h2 DEFAULT_COLORS # If built with a library that recognizes default colors (usually ncurses or # slang), and if the corresponding option is compiled into lynx, lynx # initializes it to assume the corresponding foreground and background colors. # Default colors are those that the terminal (emulator) itself is initialized # to. # # Use this feature to disable the default-colors feature at runtime. # This is useful for constructing scripts which use the non-color-style # scheme, e.g., the oldlynx script. # # This should precede ASSUMED_COLOR settings. #DEFAULT_COLORS:true .h1 External Programs .h2 EXTERNAL # External application support. This feature allows Lynx to pass a given # URL to an external program. It was written for three reasons. # # 1) To overcome the deficiency of Lynx_386 not supporting ftp and news. # External programs can be used instead by passing the URL. # # 2) To allow for background transfers in multitasking systems. # I use wget for http and ftp transfers via the external command. # # 3) To allow for new URLs to be used through Lynx. # URLs can be made up such as mymail: to spawn desired applications # via the external command. # # Restrictions can be imposed using -restrictions=externals at the Lynx command # line. This will disallow all EXTERNAL lines in lynx.cfg that have FALSE in # the 3rd field (not counting the name of the setting). TRUE lines will still # function. # # The lynx.cfg line is as follows: # # EXTERNAL:<url>:<command> %s:<norestriction>:<allow_for_activate>[:environment] # # <url> Any given URL. This can be normal ones like ftp or http or it # can be one made up like mymail. # # <command> The command to run with %s being the URL that will be passed. # In Linux I use "wget -q %s &" (no quotes) to spawn a copy of wget for # downloading http and ftp files in the background. In Win95 I use # "start ncftp %s" to spawn ncftp in a new window. # # <norestriction> This complements the -restrictions=externals feature to allow # for certain externals to be enabled while restricting others. TRUE means # a command will still function while Lynx is restricted. WB # # <allow_for_activate> Setting this to TRUE allows the use of this command not # only when EXTERN key is pressed, but also when ACTIVATE command is invoked # (i.e., activating the link with the given prefix will be equivalent to # pressing EXTERN key on it). If this component of the line is absent, then # FALSE is assumed. # # [:environment] Optional, if XWINDOWS then command is allowed only if # $DISPLAY environment variable is set, else if NON_XWINDOWS then command # is allowed only if $DISPLAY environment variable is not set, if absent or # anything else command is always allowed. # # For invoking the command use the EXTERN_LINK or EXTERN_PAGE key. By default # EXTERN_LINK is mapped to '.', and EXTERN_PAGE to ',' (if the feature is # enabled), see the KEYMAP section above. # #EXTERNAL:ftp:wget %s &:TRUE .h2 EXTERNAL_MENU # Like EXTERNAL, but allows customizing the menu name. # Here is the syntax: .ex 1 # EXTERNAL_MENU:<url>:<menu>:<command> %s:<norestriction>:<allow_for_activate>[:environment] .h1 Internal Behavior .h2 RULE .h2 RULESFILE # CERN-style rules, EXPERIMENTAL - URL-specific rules # # A CERN-style rules file can be given with RULESFILE.
