Lynx is a text browser for the World Wide Web. I use lynx for its source dump capability. It can capture a web page onto your local hard drive so that you can dissect it without opening it in a browser.
One known problem with lynx is that it requires a configuration file lynx.cfg.
Quote:
H:\>lynx -dump
Configuration file ./lynx.cfg is not available
So I wrote a small windows batch file to do my dumping. I extract the Windows version of lynx to c:\unix\bin and add a path entry there.
I wrote a batch file I call mylynxdump.bat with this line:
Code:
lynx -cfg c:\unix\bin\lynx.cfg -source %1
Now I can supply a URL to mylynxdump and use it wherever I want.]
