Yup, those would be what I was refering to.

The problem with all of this though is that I have no control over any of the 
software on the machine (it's a solaris box at university) and they don't 
allow us to add software to the machine.

Thus, unfortunately I am unable to rebuild lynx (just noticed that this 
client also doesn't support https... yipes!).  Do I really have to ssh into 
my home system just to be able to use a semi-recent/decent copy of lynx?
