Thomas, how does one use DOSLYNX for things like Arachne quick chat ?
Or, if I wanted to download a plot of a particular stock price v.s.time,
how do I specify what stock I'm interested in ?

Clarence,
I haven't been to Arachne quick chat except maybe briefly. I prefer DOS
Lynx386, which is ported from the real Unix Lynx, over DOSLYNX. But the install
program might offer ideas for a better Arachne installer. Once, running DOSLYNX
on one area of about.com, low memory ran short, and computer hung, requiring
reboot; this was with MS-DOS 6.22. Apparently DOSLYNX makes no use of extended
memory. To download a plot of a particular stock price vs. time, how to specify
the stock you're interested in depends on the Web site.
DR-DOS 7.03 offers much more functionality than MS-DOS 6.22, and no "Invalid
media" on my E drive. But sometimes the SyJet ejects for no apparent reason,
which has never to date happened in MS-DOS 6.22, OS/2 Warp 4, or Linux.
