Lynx is a fully-featured WWW client for users running cursor-addressable, character-cell display devices (e.g., vt100 terminals, terminal emulators running on PCs or Macs, or any other character-cell display).

Lynx will display HTML documents containing links to files on the local system, as well as files on remote systems running HTTP, HTTPS, gopher, FTP, WAIS, NNTP, finger, or cso/ph/qi servers, and services accessible via logins to telnet, tn3270, or rlogin accounts.

What's New in This Release:
The build-time configuration for ncurses and pdcurses libraries was improved.
Tilde-expansion of filenames was improved; this is used to provide user-configurable mime-type and mailcap files outside the user's home directory (and to fix a minor security issue related to this).
Other minor configure- and install-fixes were made.
