How do I dump as html, not source?

Hello,

I've been experimenting with Lynx for the first time today
and think
it's great.  What i want to do is dump a page to html
(basically i
want the links to stay in the dump) but am unable to find
documentation on how to do this.  I don't want to dump the
source, i
want to dump the page lynx creates with it's stripped down
style
including links.

I haven't read the mail archive because I am not subscribed,
but I'm
hoping someone can lend a hand.  Any help, or direction is
much
appreciated.

Thanks,
Ryan

it sounds as if you want the original html page (that's
using the 
"-source" option).

There are a few options to add to "-dump" to get
different appearance -

That's done with the "-nolist" option, which
currently suppresses all of 
the links.  You can get just the list of links (the
reference section)
using "-listonly".

For getting the links by themselves, I've a development
patch against 
2.8.7dev.8 which is in that area:

* modify behavior of "-nonumbers" option for -dump
so it can be combined with
   -listonly to obtain a list of the URLs without reference
numbers (Debian
   #398283) -TD

(I'll put out dev.9 once I'm done with some ongoing changes
for the SSL
interface).

I actually am looking for the page that lynx constructs
(minus
images/colors/formatting) and just want a page with the
content and
links.  I am doing something similar to lynxview:
http://www.d
elorie.com/web/lynxview.html

Right now when i -dump all my links are prepended with [#]
and then
there is a reference section at the end with all the links
[#]
http://....  I want those links to
stay apart of the text they are on.

Thanks,
Ryan
