According to the changelog, I added ASSUMED_COLOR in 2.8.3dev.23,
and DEFAULT_COLORS in 2.8.6pre.4 (though the code used the feature
since 2.8.3dev.18).
But I made the color-style configuration the default in 2.8.6 - consensus
was that it was an improvement. Occasionally (this past month is odd with
_two_ comments about it) someone asks about it.
The oldlynx script in lynx's samples directory makes it look almost the
same as the non-color-style. (The "almost" is because links don't
paint just the same way...). According to the changelog, I added the
DEFAULT_COLORS setting to help with the oldlynx script, which looks like

Ok. As I said, I don't think the packagers of my rpm really intended
yellow text on a white background, so I'll just say it is happening in
the default configuration and that setting DEFAULT_COLORS to false gives
the black background that their lynx.lss specifies. I'm not really
fussy about the colors as long as I can make out the text. The oldlynx
settings would be ok, as would the colors that I think they were trying
for. I just don't think lynx should come up unreadable by default.
Thanks again,
Stephen Isard
