CTRL-G in lynx
==============


Don't you hate hanging connections in
lynx?

For years, I've broken them with
CTRL-C to kill the program and just
started over.

Then the other day, I started trying
other CTRL key combinations and ***lo
and behold*** (imagine a choir of
angels singing in the background)
CTRL-G simply broke the connection and
left me exactly where I started.
Perfect.

Of course, my immediate thought
was "How did I not know this? Is it a
hidden feature?"

So I pressed the "?" key for help --
and got: "Alert!: Unable to access
document."

So then I looked up the documentation
at https://lynx.invisible-island.net/
lynx_help/keystrokes/

And there, near the bottom of the
list, was the culprit:

CTRL-G      - Cancel input or transfer

Maybe everyone else always knew. But
for me, the angels are still singing!
