I would like to configure pine to use lynx as its url viewer, but right
now it uses htmlview (as specificed in /mit/sipb/share/pine4.conf, which
apparently cannot be overridden by the user's .pinerc).  htmlview invokes
netscape or lynx depending on whether $DISPLAY is set.  In general, I
don't want to unset $DISPLAY, but I would still like to use lynx for
viewing html.

Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Andrew
