That is, how could you mail the maff without taking your hands off the keyboard, or switching apps or something like that? Ideally, the way it would work is you find a blog post or something that you like, then you go to a drop-down menu, and select 'mail this to me'. Are there any plugins that are so savvy?Regarding your interface preferences, lynx itself provides precisely such a menu. Providing appropriate scripts, for the entries in the menu to call, is up to you. See http://lynx.invisible-island.net/lynx_help/cattoc.html#header007
But wait! In lynx, for this particular task it gets even easier: While viewing a web page in lynx, issue the PRINT command (either by hitting the locally mapped key, which is probably 'p', or by entering ':print'). You will be offered a menu of links like this: Print Options: Save to a local file Mail the file Print to the screen Print out on a printer attached to your vt100 terminal Select the 'Mail the file' link, and you'll be prompted for an email address to which to send the page. What gets mailed is WYSIWYG: If you are viewing the rendered page, only the plain text (as rendered) will be mailed. To mail the html document lynx was served, switch to source view first (hit '\' or enter ':source' ) and then mail it.
