 |You could do something like that by adding an EXTERNAL in lynx.cfg:
 |
 |I do this (and other programs) for testing:
 |
 |EXTERNAL:ftp:oldlynx %s:TRUE
 |EXTERNAL:file:oldlynx %s:TRUE
 |EXTERNAL:http:oldlynx %s:TRUE
 |EXTERNAL:nntp:oldlynx %s:TRUE
 |EXTERNAL:snews:oldlynx %s:TRUE
 |
 |If I type a "," (comma) on a link, lynx gives me a menu with
 |the choices from my lynx.cfg
 |
 |"k" says comma is bound to EXTERN_PAGE:
 |
 |,           EXTERN_PAGE   run external program with current page  

After adding --enable-externs

  EXTERNAL:file:lynx -force_html %s:TRUE

spawns via "."!

Thank you.
