Lee, you asked about gziped files like README.Debian.gz. That doesn't come from a web server. What happens if you just hit g (go), then /usr/local/share/doc Then arrow down to a directory, arrow right into that directory and, assuming that there is a README.Debian.gz file, arrow right on the file? This also assumes that you haven't played with the default debian /etc/lynx.cfg file (other than to change colours, etc); there may be some magic embedded there.
