LYNX-DEV Lynx_w32 and Realaudio Problem

[Judith M. Dixon]

Hello,

I am running the 32-bit version of Lynx under Windows 95 and it is working
beautifully.  What a marvelous program--thanks to all who had a hand in
it.

I read in helper.txt that it is possible to use it with Realaudio so I
followed all the directions--added c:\raplayer to my path; set a home
environment variable; created a mailcap with the line provided.

When I run Lynx, and select a Realaudio item, Realaudio launches and then
aboutg 90% of the time my machine completely locks up.  About 10% of the
time it works.  What I have also noticed is that if I open realaudio
before running Lynx, then it does work.  When it works, it works really
well.

Does anyone have any ideas of what is causing this problem?  I uninstalled
realaudio and reinstalled it.  I am using ra32_30 and it is working fine
with other browsers.

I am also wondering if I can put other players for .wav, .au, etc. files
in the mailcap.  How do I find the syntax for the mailcap?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Judy Dixon
