I have http_proxy set to the usual a2i http proxy server in the
lynx.cfg file for both the SunOS and FreeBSD vesions of lynx in the
userbin. To turn this off, set no_proxy to "*" in your environment.
If the general consensus is that http_proxy is best left off, I can
remove this from lynx.cfg. Any user wishing to use the proxy would
then have to set "http_proxy" in their own environment. This could
also be overridden by a "http_proxy" or "no_proxy" setting in a
"lynx.cfg" file in your HOME directory. The userbin lynx will try to
read a file by that name after reading the default lynx.cfg.
