<h2>About Lynx</h2>

Lynx is a fully-featured World Wide
 Web (WWW) browser for users on Unix, VMS, and other
 platforms running cursor-addressable, character-cell terminals or
 emulators. That includes vt100 terminals, other character-cell
 displays, and vt100 emulators such as Kermit or Procomm running
 on PCs or Macs.

For information on how to use Lynx see the
 <a href="Lynx_users_guide.html">Lynx User's Guide</a>, or the
 <a href="lynx_help_main.html">Lynx help files</a>.

<h2>Credits and Copyright</h2>

Lynx was a product of the Distributed
 Computing Group within Academic Computing Services of <a href=
 "http://web.archive.org/web/19971210163627/http://www.cc.ukans.edu/">
 The University of Kansas</a>.

Lynx was originally developed by <a href=
 "http://web.archive.org/web/20040309105337/http://www.cc.ukans.edu/cwis/people/Lou.Montulli.html">
 Lou Montulli</a>, <a href=

 "http://web.archive.org/web/20040412210651/http://www.cc.ukans.edu/cwis/people/Garrett/Garrett_Arch_Blythe.html">
 Garrett Blythe</a> created <a href=
 "http://web.archive.org/web/20040812204015/http://www.cc.ukans.edu/about_doslynx/doslynx.html">
 DosLynx</a> and later joined the Lynx effort as
 well. Following the departures of Lou and Garrett for positions
 at Netscape in the summer of 1994, Craig Lavender
 provided support services for Lynx, and
 Ravikumar Kolli for DosLynx.

Lynx is maintained and supported by members
 of the Internet community coordinated via the <a href=

Lynx is derived from material copyrighted by

Lynx was built over an early version of the
 Common Code Library developed by the CERN WWW Project. That code
 is copyrighted by CERN. Lynx contains other
 sections of code that are copyrighted by other institutions or
 individuals. The Lynx copyright does not
 override or invalidate those copyrights.

Thanks to <a name="note13" href=
 "http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/" id="note13">Tim
 Berners-Lee</a> and the other <a name="note14" href=
 "http://www.w3.org/People.html" id="note14">CERN World Wide Web
 wizards</a> for the WWW client library code and all of their
 other work on the WWW project, NCSA and the <a href=
 "http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/Mosaic/NCSAMosaicHome.html">
 Mosaic</a> developers, and to everyone out in netland who has
 contributed to Lynx's development either
 directly (through comments or bug reports) or indirectly (through
 inspiration and development of other systems).

Also, special thanks go to Foteos Macrides who ported
 much of Lynx to VMS and did much of its
 development following Lou Montulli's and Garrett Blythe's
 departures from the University of Kansas, and to Earl
 Fogel of the University of Saskatchewan. Earl implemented
 the hypertext engine HYPERREZ in the Unix environment. HYPERREZ
 was developed by Niel Larson of Think.com and served as the model
 for the early versions of Lynx which did not use
 the WWW libraries and had their own hypertext format.
