Hi folks

Most times, when I try to download an rpm from freshmeat, using lynx 2.8 -
the stock rh 6.1 version (or any other browser - netscape, ie ...) - rpms
are often downloaded as ascii text instead of binaries.

Various download sites fix it by assigning it another mime-type - am
downloading a pgp4pine rpm and there, the mime-type is x-pn-realaudio !!!

How do you edit lynx's (or netscape's) config files to set the mime-type
for rpm, and what is the mimetype for an rpm?
