Lynx version 2.8.1 with slang for OS/2

lynx, a fully-featured World Wide Web (WWW) client, has OS/2 code in its source level. So, we can easily make an OS/2 executable using emx/gcc and OS/2 ported `ncurses library'.

You can get OS/2 lynx linked with ncurses and OS/2 ported ncurses lib- rary from a ftp site:

          ftp://ftp.leo.org/pub/comp/os/os2/tcpip/www/lynx_282_dev3.zip
          ftp://ftp.leo.org/pub/comp/os/os2/gnu/emx+gcc/contrib/nc-emx-b.zip

Or from `leo's mirror sites:

          ftp://ftp.uni-heidelberg.de/pub/os2/            Heidelberg, Germany
          ftp://ftp.uni-siegen.de/pub/os2/                Siegen, Germany
          ftp://xenia.sote.hu/pub/os2/munich/             Budapest, Hungary
          ftp://ftp.man.poznan.pl/pub/os2/                Poznan, Poland
          ftp://crydee.sai.msu.su/pub/comp/os/os2/leo/    Moscow, Russia

I got `lynx_282_dev3.zip'. I was able to use lynx in OS/2 shell and `xterm' or `kterm' in XFree86 for OS/2. Mouse is functional.
Text mode WWW browser is very comfortable for me. Only dissatisfaction was colorization of lynx. Colorization depends on `ncurses'. It's implementation does not allow users to easily setup colorization. Users cannot modify colors by lynx's configration file (lynx.cfg).
I happened to know that we can configure colors by editing `lynx.cfg' for lynx with `slang'. So, I compliled `slang' and linked with lynx.
Now colorization of lynx is more beautiful and easier than that of lynx with `ncurses', I do think.
