For westerners, setting LOCALE_CHARSET to TRUE seems sensible; for
CJKers I'm not so sure. It's just occurred to me that there _is_ an
alternative to the approach of shipping one configfile per language:
#!/bin/sh
[ X$LANG = X ] && exec lynx.real
LL=${LANG%.*}
# and set other variables if LL=ja/ko/zh?
LYNX_CFG=~/.lynx-${LL}.cfg
export LYNX_CFG
cat > $LYNX_CFG <<EOT
INCLUDE:/etc/lynx-cur/lynx.cfg
PREFERRED_LANGUAGE:$LL,en;q=0.9,*;q=0.5
# plus any CJK-dependent variables
EOT
exec lynx.real
That's really hackish, but at least it's a hack that clearly doesn't
deserve an entire package of its own.
