Mail*Link(r) SMTP               Socks with Lynx
I've been using Mosaic with Socks for quite some time and it is
great with a firewall, but not all of our users have an X display.

Has someone tried Socks-ifying Lynx, yet?

Judging from a quick look at the code it looks
like most (or all) of the networking code is in the WWW libraries.
If it really is *all* of the networking code in the WWW libraries
then Socks-ifying Lynx could lead to the Socks-ification of many
WWW browsers.

So has anyone done this yet?
Worth doing?

Prettige Kerstdagen & Gelukkig Nieuw Jaar,
