Some people would modify the file under /etc - but that's not necessary. I set $LYNX_CFG to point to my own file, and put at the top include:lynx.cfg and then in that file, modify the color settings. For example: COLOR:6:brightblue:green The advantage to doing it that way, is less tinkering with installed files. To see what lynx.cfg file is installed, I'd look at dpkg output (-l to find the package name, -L to look at the list of files). As someone notes, lynx-cur installs /etc/lynx-cur/lynx.cfg -- Thomas E.
