Thanks. I tried as you suggested but the switch is
not supported by the version of lynx I have
(Lynx Version 2.8.3rel.1 (23 Apr 2000)
libwww-FM 2.14, SSL-MM 1.4.1, OpenSSL 0.9.6a
Built on linux-gnu Jun 13 2001 20:02:05)
I have the Debian dist. of linux and 'apt-get'ed lynx
from one of the dist. sites. Should I be using a different
version of lynx?

For a while now, there's been an under-documented feature that does what you
want. Start lynx as:
lynx -cmd_log=yourfile https://whatever.com/
and do whatever it is you want automated. Your keystrokes will be logged to
"yourfile". When and if you get to a point in the session where you'll want to
take back control of lynx, I guess you'd have to "Q"uit lynx at that point, and
then edit the log file to remove that "Q". I don't believe you can turn off
keystroke logging from within lynx, the way you can trace logging.
Then starting with:
lynx -cmd_script=yourfile https://whatever.com/
will replay your desired keystrokes.
