Can I construct a set of cernrules that chooses a correct proxy according
to the current URL?
We have here a variety of firewalls that demand different proxies to go
over them. Netscape has a file proxyconf with javascript (?) function
FindProxyForURL(url, host), so the same instance of Netscape can be used
to access any site.
To get the same sites with lynx, I am forced to open different windows for
every type of firewalls, and set the environment variable http_proxy
accordingly. This is not a real trouble, but it would be nice if something
similar to FindProxyForURL(url, host) could be applied to lynx.
