It is telling lynx to search for wattcp.cfg in the current working directory. Note that (at least for the version of lynx I use), it should have been set wattcp_cfg=.\ with an underdash, not a dot.

This is to tell DOS it shall replace the name between the % signs with the environment variable so named. >I just tried it right now at the c:\ prompt- >c:\fdos\lynx> lynx >c:\fdos\temp\: no such directory Did you type the "greater than" sign between the first and the second "lynx" in the second line above or c:\fdos\lynx was your current directory and the sign was part of the prompt ?
