Problems starting lynx

[ApeintheShell]

i installed the lynx package from apple's webpage and went to their online help but there
is no documentation how to get the app started

it is located in /usr/local/bin

so i tried sudo open /usr/local/bin/lynx
then lynx
then lynx http://www.apple.com

what is the command to start this web browser?

can i change the directory from where it starts?

thanks, ape

did you try /usr/local/bin/lynx http://www.apple.com

That should do it. Also the web page is optional.

Try echo $PATH and see if /usr/local/bin is in your search path. If it is, then you've got other problems with the lynx installation than it not finding the program (ditto for lurk's suggestion, if that doesn't open it something's wrong with the installation)...
