It would have to be "something similar": non-Unix configurations wouldn't benefit by "." but generally use some conventional directory e.g., under Application Data in Windows. Unix configurations might use something like $HOME/.lynx; it is easy enough for users to setup. Changing the place where lynx looks for it is problematic. The location of the bookmarks file in lynx.cfg is a default. It is overridden by the setting (saved in ~/.lynxrc) for "Bookmarks file". If you happen to have "Multi-bookmarks" set, you can still see this setting by temporarily turning "multi-bookmarks" off. (my corresponding setting is "./.lynx/default.html" - which is relative to $HOME). -- Thomas E. Dickey <[email protected]> http://invisible-island.net ftp://invisible-island.net
