Great, thanks!

I'd agree, except that my example of using lynx on a single-floppy system
(LOAF: http://www.ecks.org/loaf/) already includes ftp anyway. Perhaps
after --disable fever subsides, we can agree on smart defaults for a
--no-frills option.
Meanwhile, I'm busy investigating dead code and have a question: Are all
these empty HText_* functions here for any particular reason? Nothing's
even calling into them. There are even several non-empty HText_ functions
that aren't ever getting called.
