I'm just going to shaw a little hack I made/discovered for Lynx. It's
a one-liner, essentially, to instantly search YT via Gopher. Just add
the following to your lynx.cfg:
```
HELPFILE:
gopher://codemadness.org/7/idiotbox.cgi
```
That's it! Now when you press ?, it will bring up a prompt to search
YT.
I also changed the default "index" to my personal
gophermap, but you can change it to anything you want, obviously.
```
DEFAULT_INDEX_FILE:
gopher://gophermap.i.choose
```
It just makes it really convenient. You can hack the HELPFILE to
access Gopherddit or Gopherpedia, also. The one major drawback is if
you actually want to use the HELPFILE, you'll have to change it back,
which is why I highly recommend simply commenting out the old HELPFILE
line.
There is probably a similar thing with jump, but I've just never done
jumpfiles with Lynx.
