                        Copy the URL for the current document or link to
                        the clipboard using command in $RL_CLCOPY_CMD. as
                        illustrated in the <a href=
"https://metacpan.org/dist/Term-ReadLine-Perl/source/ReadLine/readline.pm#L4451">clipboard_set</a> function
                        of the (undated) Perl Term-ReadLine-Perl script.
                        The clipboard contents can be retrieved using Lynx's
                        PASTE_URL command (in turn, via $RL_PASTE_CMD).

       CTRL-V         - Outside of a text input line or field,
                        switch to <a href=
"option_help.html#tagsoup">alternative parsing</a> of HTML.
                      - In a form text input field,
                        CTRL-V prompts for a key command (allows
                        <a href=
"../Lynx_users_guide.html#CtrlVNote">escaping</a> from the field).

                        Note that on most UNIX hosts, CTRL-V is bound
                        via stty to the lnext (literal-next) code but
                        the exact behavior of that is implementation
                        specific.  On Solaris you must type CTRL-V
                        twice to use it, since it quotes the following
                        keystroke.

       CTRL-U         - Inside text input line or field,
                        erase input line (<a href=
"edit_help.html">more input line commands</a>)
                      - Outside of text input or field,
                        undo returning to previous topic.

       CTRL-G         - Cancel input or transfer

       CTRL-T         - Toggle trace mode on and off
       ;              - View the Lynx Trace Log for the current session
       CTRL-K         - Invoke the <a href=
"cookie_help.html">Cookie Jar Page</a>

"../Lynx_users_guide.html#Cache">Cache Jar Page</a>
       <em>numbers</em>        - Invoke the prompt
                          <a href=
"follow_help.html">Follow link (or goto link or page) number:</a>
                        or the
                          <a href=
"follow_help.html#select-option">Select option (or page) number:</a>
                        prompt
