Using another bkm file.

[Charles Hallenbeck]

Paul,

What I would do in a case like that is edit the file ".lynxrc" to
change the name of your default bookmark file to the name of the
one you want to edit. Then run lynx with the "-book" option, do
your removing, and when you are done go back to restore the
original bookmark default.

BTW you can concatenate additional bookmarks to the end of your
default file without any problem if you make sure that the newly
added stuff contains only link information and not the preamble
text at the top.
