Thanks, Chris. I just tried, and it doesn't look like it's the
terminal capturing Ctrl-S. I issues "Ctrl-V Ctrl-S" and didn't get the
dialog either.

I should mention another issue I saw, where making changes to the
elinks.conf file did not apply in the application as I subsequently
launched it. The only way to apply those changes was to launch "Setup
-> Options Manager", then apply the changes there, and exit.

This is the first keybindings change I've tried, perhaps there is a
similar problem with it?
