No problem with that: thanks a lot for adding this feature to Lynx. > Instead use full directory name: /home/username/.lynx_session That was my guess, but it was at the end of a long day (smile). > First put following lines in global lynx.cfg file: > ENABLE_LYNXRC:auto_session:ON > ENABLE_LYNXRC:session_file:ON > And after that start new lynx session and configure file via 'o' page. No, that doesn't work: the 'o'ptions list still shows session with '!' & if you enter the file name there, it isn't saved in .lynxrc . However, if you simply enter the full dir name in lynx.cfg , it is recognised even when Lynx is started from a subdir. For TD : I suggest adding to lynx.cfg after the line # (The current working directory may be changed inside lynx) the lines # If you want to use the same session file wherever you invoke Lynx, # enter the full path below, eg '/home/<username>/.lynx_session'. I hope you don't need a patch (smile). -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
