My date was a guess, might go further back. Given the number of
developers who do track lynx frequent updates, its used in site testing
by professionals across the board, you might be surprised. As I said
earlier, the new York Times ran an article suggesting its use, this year.
You do not follow the development of any tools, even your own. that
might suggest you are in no position to comment on limitations that might
not even exist, let alone project your idea of cutting edge onto a tool.
Goodness there are some lynx compiles that can submit script buttons if
those buttons are designed to manage the enter key.
