+
+ <pre>
+ a - Places the link that you are currently positioned
+ on into a personal <a href=
+"bookmark_help.html">bookmark file</a>.
+
+ c - Allows you to send a mail message to the owner
+ or maintainer of the data that you are currently
+ viewing. In the case that no owner is known,
+ you cannot send a comment.
+
+ d - Downloads the file pointed to by the current link
+ and displays an option menu allowing the file to
+ be saved or transferred by configurable options.
+ Can also be used when positioned on a form SUBMIT
+ button to download the reply to a form submission.
+
+ e - Allows you to edit the current document if it is a
+ local file.
+
+ E - Allows you to edit the current link's URL (or ACTION) and
+ use that as a <em>goto</em> URL.
+
+ g - Allows you to enter any <a href=
+"http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt">URL</a> or filename that
+ you wish to view, and then <em>goto</em> it.
+
+ G - Allows you to edit the current document's URL and use that
+ as a <em>goto</em> URL.
+
+ ? or H - Hypertext help to explain how to navigate in
+ <strong>Lynx</strong> and use its features.
+
+ i - Shows an index of files or subjects,
+ which may be changed in <em>lynx.cfg</em>.
+
+ j - Allows you to enter a short name to goto an URL,
+ if a jumps file has been defined. Press "?"
+ and ENTER to see the list of defined jump commands.
+
+ k - Shows a list of key mappings. Keys remapped in
+ "lynx.cfg" show up in this list.
+
+ l - Brings up a list of references (links) in the current
+ document, which can be used for rapid access to the
+ links in large documents.
+
+ m - Returns to the first screen and empties the
+ history stack.
+
+ p - Brings up a list of <a href=
+"print_help.html">print commands</a>.
+
+ o - Brings up a list of settable <a href=
+"option_help.html">options</a>.
+
+ q - Quits <strong>Lynx</strong>. (&ldquo;Q&rdquo; quits without asking)
+
+ / - Search for a string of characters in the current document
+ (case insensitive or case sensitive
+ depending on the <a href=
+"option_help.html">options</a> set).
+
+ s - Search through an external searchable indexed document.
+
+ n - Move to the next instance of a search string if you
+ have searched previously.
+
+ v - View a <a href=
+"bookmark_help.html">Bookmark file</a>.
+
+ V - Go to the <a href=
+"visited_help.html">Visited Links Page</a>
+
+ x - Force submission of form or link with no-cache.
+
+ z - Abort a network transfer in progress. If any partial
+ data has been transferred it will be displayed.
+
+ &lt;backspace&gt; - displays the <a href=
+"history_help.html">History Page</a>.
+
+ = - Show information about the file and link that you
+ are currently viewing.
+
+ \ - Toggles between viewing the HTML source of a
+ document and the rendered version of the document.
+
+ ! - Spawns your default operating system shell.
+
+ ' - Toggles "historical" vs minimal or valid comment parsing.
+ When historical, any close-angle-bracket will be treated
+ as a comment terminator, emulating the parsing bug in old
+ versions of Mosaic and Netscape, rather than validly
+ requiring pairs of two successive dashes to delimit
+ comments within the angle-brackets.
+
+ _ - Clears all authorization info for the current session. Can
+ be used when leaving one's terminal without ending the <strong>Lynx</strong>
+ session, to guard against someone else retrieving protected
+ documents with previously entered username/password info.
+ Note that any protected documents that are still in cache
+ can still be accessed.
+
+ ` - Toggles minimal or valid comment parsing. When minimal, any
+ two successive dashes followed by a close-angle-bracket will
+ be treated as a comment terminator, emulating the parsing bug
+ in Netscape v2.0. If historical comment parsing is set, that
+ will override minimal or valid comment parsing.
+
+ * - Toggles image_links mode on and off. When on, links will
+ be created for all images, including inlines.
+
+ @ - Toggles raw 8-bit translations or CJK mode on and off, only
+ for documents which does not specify character set explicitly.
+ Should be on when the document's charset matches the
+ display character set, and otherwise off so that 8-bit
+ characters will be translated by <strong>Lynx</strong> with respect to the
+ Assumed document charset, using approximations if necessary
+ (see <a href="option_help.html">options</a>).
+
+ [ - Toggles pseudo_inlines mode on and off. When on, inline
+ images which have no ALT string specified will have an
+ "[INLINE]" pseudo-ALT string inserted in the <strong>Lynx</strong> display.
+ When off, they will be treated as having ALT="" (i.e.,
+ they will be ignored). If image_links mode is toggled on,
+ the pseudo-ALT strings will be restored, to serve as links
+ to the inline images' sources.
+
+ ] - Sends a HEAD request for the current document or link. It
+ applies only to documents or links (or form submit buttons)
+ of http servers. A statusline message will notify you if
+ the context for this command was inappropriate. The HEAD
+ requests always are sent to the http server, i.e., <strong>Lynx</strong>
+ does not retrieve any previous server replies from its
+ cache. Note that for form submissions, http servers vary
+ in whether they will treat HEAD requests as valid and return
+ the CGI script's headers, or treat it as invalid and return
+ an error message.
+
+ " - Toggles valid or "soft" double-quote parsing. When soft,
+ a close-angle-bracket will serve as both a close-double-
+ quote and close-tag, emulating the parsing bug in old
+ versions of Mosaic and Netscape.
+
+ CTRL-R - Reloads the current document and resets the display.
+
+ CTRL-V - Switches to an alternative way of parsing HTML documents.
+ This may help to get a more readable rendering of some
+ documents with invalidly placed HTML tags, <a href=
+"option_help.html#tagsoup">more details</a>.
+
+ CTRL-W - Resets or cleans up the display.
+
+ CTRL-U - Clears text from an input field or prompt.
+
+ CTRL-G - Cancels any input prompt, mail message or data transfer.
+
+ CTRL-T - Toggles trace mode on and off.
+
+ ; - Views the <em>Lynx Trace Log</em> for the current session.
+
+ CTRL-K - Invokes the Cookie Jar Page.
+
+ numbers - <strong>Lynx</strong> offers other, advanced navigation features when
+ numbers are used to invoke the
+ <a href=
+"follow_help.html">Follow link (or goto link or page) number:</a> or
+ <a href=
+"follow_help.html#select-option">Select option (or page) number:</a>
+ prompts.
