    Has anyone had any luck getting lynx to work with windows?

    It has been a long time since I did this.
    At this stage of the game probably building with a Cygwin install will
    be best for you.

    I used Cygwin and installed it, works through the bbs too. Only problem is that it echoes text twice. Like if you press g, it will display two g's on the screen. I am playing around with it, trying to figure out how to get this issue worked out.
