You have to make sure that it is in your path and in the libpath.

Here is my menu item:

ReRead Xtern_Run OS2you.exe_-timelimit_%t_-l_%%%P_-i_600_-s_-redir_2_...
     ...-prn_LPT1_-e_4OS2.EXE_/c_LYNX.cmd  sysop "Q) Lynx"


Join the 2 lines above into one line, also, make sure that you have the
latest version as -timelimit isn't in all versions.

Here is  my LYNX.CMD:

C:\lynx\
set TERM=ansi
lynx-std.exe
exit

I hope this helps.


George
