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

You can get an rpm file from here.

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

ok i checked it out but i already got lynx installed after all
path is also correct in the tcl file
but still when i rehash i get this message

*** BOT SHUTDOWN (CNN News not changed!)
* CNN News not changed!
DCC session closed

and bot gives this as quit message CNN News not changed!
it wont restart either untill i removed the news.tcl from the config file
