There's always the breakout directories on sol.slcc.edu for convenient

But that alone doesn't cut it, as I have over time repeatedly tried
to point out...
Start with <http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month0699/msg00444.html>,
follow the pointer. It will take some reading of messages.
I don't know why nobody has added code that solves the problem, it
shouldn't be any more difficult than what's already being done for
other cases.
I haven't done it because
- I don't use cookies much, basically only for testing.
- I have no need for saving cookies with -source, even
some doubts whether lynx should do it.
- I would want to review whether lynx should really call
exit_immediately from withi HTFWriter_free, I consider
that unclean.
But to someone who just wants to make a patch to remove the current
limitation, those considerations need not apply to you.
