8 # You must then save the settings using the link on the line above the
12 # You may also use the command-line option "-forms_options", which displays
13 # the simpler Options Menu instead. Save options with that using the '>' key.
15 # There is normally no need to edit this file manually, since the defaults
16 # here can be controlled from the Options Screen, and the next time options
17 # are saved from the Options Screen this file will be completely rewritten.
18 # You have been warned...
20 # If you are looking for the general configuration file - it is normally
21 # called "lynx.cfg". It has different content and a different format.

25 # accept all cookies if desired. The default is "FALSE" which will
26 # prompt for each cookie. Set accept_all_cookies to "TRUE" to accept
28 accept_all_cookies=off
30 # anonftp_password allows the user to tell Lynx to use the personal
31 # email address as the password for anonymous ftp. If no value is given,
32 # Lynx will use the personal email address. Set anonftp_password
33 # to a different value if you choose.

146 # unless it is activated from the command line, and the built-in line editor
147 # will be used for sending mail.
150 # The file_sorting_method specifies which value to sort on when viewing
151 # file lists such as FTP directories. The options are:
152 # BY_FILENAME -- sorts on the name of the file

197 # Up to 26 bookmark files (for the English capital letters) are allowed.

225 # personal_mail_address specifies your personal mail address. The
226 # address will be sent during HTTP file transfers for authorization and
227 # logging purposes, and for mailed comments.
228 # If you do not want this information given out, set the NO_FROM_HEADER
229 # to TRUE in lynx.cfg, or use the -nofrom command line switch. You also
230 # could leave this field blank, but then you won't have it included in
231 # your mailed comments.
232 personal_mail_address=
234 # personal_mail_name specifies your personal name, for mail. The
235 # name is sent for mailed comments. Lynx will prompt for this,
236 # showing the configured value as a default when sending mail.
237 # This is not necessarily the same as a name provided as part of the
238 # personal_mail_address.
239 # Lynx does not save your changes to that default value as a side-effect
240 # of sending email. To update the default value, you must use the options
241 # menu, or modify this file directly.
244 # preferred_charset specifies the character set in MIME notation (e.g.,
245 # ISO-8859-2, ISO-8859-5) which Lynx will indicate you prefer in requests
246 # to http servers using an Accept-Charset header. The value should NOT
247 # include ISO-8859-1 or US-ASCII, since those values are always assumed
248 # by default. May be a comma-separated list.
249 # If a file in that character set is available, the server will send it.
250 # If no Accept-Charset header is present, the default is that any
251 # character set is acceptable. If an Accept-Charset header is present,
252 # and if the server cannot send a response which is acceptable
253 # according to the Accept-Charset header, then the server SHOULD send
254 # an error response, though the sending of an unacceptable response
258 # preferred_language specifies the language in MIME notation (e.g., en,
259 # fr, may be a comma-separated list in decreasing preference)
260 # which Lynx will indicate you prefer in requests to http servers.
261 # If a file in that language is available, the server will send it.
262 # Otherwise, the server will send the file in its default language.
263 preferred_language=en
265 # select_popups specifies whether the OPTIONs in a SELECT block which
266 # lacks a MULTIPLE attribute are presented as a vertical list of radio
267 # buttons or via a popup menu. Note that if the MULTIPLE attribute is
268 # present in the SELECT start tag, Lynx always will create a vertical list
269 # of checkboxes for the OPTIONs. A value of "on" will set popup menus
270 # as the default while a value of "off" will set use of radio boxes.
271 # The default can be overridden via the -popup command line toggle.
274 # show_color specifies how to set the color mode at startup. A value of
275 # "never" will force color mode off (treat the terminal as monochrome)
276 # at startup even if the terminal appears to be color capable. A value of
277 # "always" will force color mode on even if the terminal appears to be
278 # monochrome, if this is supported by the library used to build lynx.
279 # A value of "default" will yield the behavior of assuming
280 # a monochrome terminal unless color capability is inferred at startup
281 # based on the terminal type, or the -color command line switch is used, or
282 # the COLORTERM environment variable is set. The default behavior always is
283 # used in anonymous accounts or if the "option_save" restriction is set.
284 # The effect of the saved value can be overridden via
285 # the -color and -nocolor command line switches.
286 # The mode set at startup can be changed via the "show color" option in
287 # the 'o'ptions menu. If the option settings are saved, the "on" and
288 # "off" "show color" settings will be treated as "default".
291 # show_cursor specifies whether to 'hide' the cursor to the right (and
292 # bottom, if possible) of the screen, or to place it to the left of the
293 # current link in documents, or current option in select popup windows.
294 # Positioning the cursor to the left of the current link or option is
295 # helpful for speech or braille interfaces, and when the terminal is
296 # one which does not distinguish the current link based on highlighting
297 # or color. A value of "on" will set positioning to the left as the
298 # default while a value of "off" will set 'hiding' of the cursor.
299 # The default can be overridden via the -show_cursor command line toggle.
302 # show_dotfiles specifies that the directory listing should include
303 # "hidden" (dot) files/directories. If set "on", this will be
304 # honored only if enabled via userdefs.h and/or lynx.cfg, and not
305 # restricted via a command line switch. If display of hidden files
306 # is disabled, creation of such files via Lynx also is disabled.
309 # If sub_bookmarks is not turned "off", and multiple bookmarks have
310 # been defined (see below), then all bookmark operations will first
311 # prompt the user to select an active sub-bookmark file. If the default
312 # Lynx bookmark_file is defined (see above), it will be used as the
313 # default selection. When this option is set to "advanced", and the
314 # user mode is advanced, the 'v'iew bookmark command will invoke a
315 # statusline prompt instead of the menu seen in novice and intermediate
316 # user modes. When this option is set to "standard", the menu will be
317 # presented regardless of user mode.
320 # user_mode specifies the users level of knowledge with Lynx. The
321 # default is "NOVICE" which displays two extra lines of help at the
322 # bottom of the screen to aid the user in learning the basic Lynx
323 # commands. Set user_mode to "INTERMEDIATE" to turn off the extra info.
324 # Use "ADVANCED" to see the URL of the currently selected link at the
325 # bottom of the screen.
328 # If verbose_images is "on", lynx will print the name of the image
329 # source file in place of [INLINE], [LINK] or [IMAGE]
330 # See also VERBOSE_IMAGES in lynx.cfg
333 # If vi_keys is set to "on", then the normal VI movement keys:
336 # will be enabled. These keys are only lower case.
337 # Capital 'H', 'J' and 'K will still activate help, jump shortcuts,
338 # and the keymap display, respectively.

342 # in the Visited Links Page.
