| | Lynx first started life as a UNIX application, written by the University of Kansas as part of their campus-wide information system. | | | All questions regarding the workings of Lynx should go to the Lynx-Dev Group as they are the ones that support this software. | | | This few pages are a result of not being able to find resources on the Web for the Windows port of the Lynx browser. |

| | This browser was built on the powerful interpretive language called Viola that Wei had developed for Unix computers. | | | An open source version of Netscape was then developed called Mozilla, which was the internal name for the old Netscape browser, and released in 2002. | | | An open source version of the Netscape browser was released in 2002 was also named Mozilla in tribute to this early version, and then released as the quickly popular FireFox in November, 2004. |

| | An Early History of Lynx |
| | Lynx was developed primarily by Michael Grobe, Charles Rezac and Lou Montulli, and members of the "Internet community" by an iterative process of exploration, interaction, hacking and evaluating. | | | Lynx was developed in a dynamic environment involving frequent collaboration, as well as independent work, and identifying who did exactly what and when is very difficult. | | | Lynx also had an "owner tag", developed to identify the document creator (a forerunner to the mailto: URL), as implemented in the UNICORN CWIS system developed by Neal Erdwien of Kansas State University. |

| | Using the Lynx WWW Browser |
| | Lynx performs the same general set of functions as Netscape and Mosaic, but it can't display graphics and fancy typefaces. | | | In Lynx, the appearance of links largely depends on the configuration of the terminal or terminal emulation package being used. | | | This help system is an example of a form of document organization known as "hypertext." The defining aspect of hypertext is that it allows the author to specify that certain words or phrases in the text be links to other information. |
