Well, that's the correct way to set up the home page according to
Lynx!!! Local files (i.e. files on your computer) are worse, to set
the above for a local file such as WIN1_TEST_FILE_HTML you'd need to
unix-ify it a bit:
/WIN1/test/file.html

Not very QDOS-friendly!

I haven't used unix coventions much, yet many are adopted on the www, so all the separators are forward slashes.


So you could say that /WIN1/test/file.html is no real hassle as we have all become accustomed to this format for web addresses.

A forward slash does have the advantage of not needing to be a 'shifted' key combination, with is the bugbear of '_' the underscore character.
