As user, I cannot save option changes to disk, so my changes remain in effect
only until the session closes.
As root there is no such problem. But I rarely work as root.
I've changed ~/lynx.cfg to have the options I want, but that has no effect on
lynx's behavior
<<<<<<<<
This last file is read only if somehow you point it out to Lynx, through
environment variable LYNX_CFG or on the command line after "-cfg". Furthermore,
it is intended for general, not particular use. For particular use, for
Options, the file usually named ".lynxrc" is the one.
If Lynx runs, though, somehwere it found a version of the configuration file.
On the option page there is a link to it from "View the file lynx.cfg": follow
the link and see the full path name.
