the only known site for MacLynx is  www.lirmm.fr/~gutkneco/maclynx/ ,
but its author has been thought to be inaccessible for some time.
please let lynx-dev know if you have any better successes.

the rule at lynx-dev is very much `do it yourself',
but if you have the experience to update the Mac port,
do feel welcome to contribute patches & ask for advice:
there's lots of expertise re other OS's & terminal interfaces here
& lynx-devers are generally friendly to new contributors.
you should have a look in the Archive at  www.flora.org/lynx-dev/ ,
as inquiries re Lynx for Mac come in regularly.
