> possible to add new lines in a textarea with lynx.
This came from lynx's help, in the "Line Editor" section:
---------------------
Special commands for use only in textarea fields:
Textarea external edit - Ctrl-X e
Insert file in textarea - Ctrl-X i
Grow textarea - Ctrl-X g
---------------------
Sounds like control+X followed by "g" will do what you want.
However, if you prefer to use an external editor, control+X
followed by "e" will allow you more control over editing the
contents of the text box. IIRC, it uses vi/vim by default unless
you've overridden that by setting your EDITOR environment
variable to your favorite editor. Being a vi guy, I'm happy with
its default settings. (grin)
Hope this helps you,
