downloading current page in lynx the cat

[Ralph W. Reid]

Perhaps the following steps are what you are looking for:

1.  While the desired page is being displayed, press the backslash (\)
key to get the html source.

2.  While the html source is being displayed, press 'p' to print the
current document.

3.  Select the option to print the document to a file (probably the
first option on the menu).

4.  Modify the default file name if desired, and hit the enter key to
save the file to your disk.

5.  To return to the html source document, you may need to hit the
left arrow key, as though you were returning to a previous document.
Once at the html source document, press the backslash key (\) again to
bring back the rendered document.

HTH, and have a _great_ day!
