If no one has any serious bugs, I think we should move into pre-release
(freeze features, and look for bugs that we overlooked).
The current version of lynx is 2.8.2
It's available at
http://lynx.browser.org
http://sol.slcc.edu/lynx/release
ftp://lynx.isc.org/lynx-2.8.2
2.8.3 Development & patches:
http://lynx.isc.org/current/index.html
2000-03-12 (2.8.3dev.22)
* modify Home_Dir() so that on DOS & Windows, if the $HOMEDRIVE variable is
set, it may be used to specify the drive on which $HOME is located -TD
* add configure option --enable-htmlized-cfg to install the htmlized lynx.cfg
in the help directory (request by LP) -TD
* suppress sleep's in crawl or traversal mode (request by LV) -TD
* cleanup LYrcFile.c a little, using new functions putBool, getBool, putEnum
and getEnum -TD
* change default mode for visited-links-page to match original behavior, add
visited_links to .lynxrc file (requests by KD, LP) -TD
* update documentation to reflect move from sol.slcc.edu to lynx.isc.org -PG
* remove obsolete files: WWW/Copyright.txt (replaced by FreeOfCharge.html) and
WWW/README.txt (recommended by DK) -TD
* clean up some of the loose ends, primarily in documentation. A Russian user
pointed out that the DOS binary was ignoring character 0xe0. This turned out
to be a bug in the PDCurses code for DOS. I modified the INSTALLATION file
to reflect the patch to PDCurses. Also include the file for the public
domain release of the CERN wwwlib code (FreeOfCharge.html). Other changes
fix dead links, Y2K changes, and reflect newer versions of other programs -DK
* comment-out/disable NO_ANONYMOUS_EMAIL definition in userdefs.h -DK
* change optimization level to -O1 in makefile.dos -DK
* use macro set_errno() to hide some of the clutter in HTTCP.c as well as make
it simpler to build with threaded libraries -TD
* ifdef'd out a "QUIT" command sent to the FTP server immediately after opening
a data connection in HTFTPLoad(), since this makes the ftp.wku.edu server
close the connection prematurely -TD
* combine redundant HTMake_VMS_name() with HTVMS_name() -TD
* review use of "%s" in sprintf, to guard against buffer overflows, modified
some to use HTSprintf0 or StrAllocCopy, others to use specific lengths
(KW noted a related problem in HTTP.c) -TD
