Package: lynx-cur
Version: 2.8.6-17
Severity: wishlist

Today we look at
$ lynx -source .|validate
*** Errors: ***
Error at line 1, character 1:  missing document type declaration; assuming
        HTML 4.01 Transitional

No <HTML> tag too, bad?

<H2>Current directory is /tmp</H2>
<H2></H2> <--why empty H2?
<PRE>    drwxr-xr-x   23 root     root        1024 Dec 21 02:39 <A
HREF="tmp/..">../</A></PRE>
<PRE>... <-- why wasted opening and closing PRE on each line?!

What's worse I suppose is
$ lynx -source . > x.html
$ lynx x.html
None of the links can be accessed.
$ lynx $PWD/x.html
$ p=$PWD/x.html;cd ..;lynx $p
Still no help
$ mv $p .
$ lynx x.html 
OK, finally.

OK, this works better than ".":
$ lynx -source a_directory > p.htm
$ lynx p.htm
