lynx is a command like web-browser, that can also be used, to download the raw data for other programs.

It is likely that your script requires it for this purpose.

1) make sure you dont use windrop
2) make sure you have lynx installed
3) post the error message

some shells have lynx installed, ask an admin if it is, and if so find out the path to lynx, then you put that into the script where it asks
