    With the proposed addition of many more domain types, will lynx be able to
    use them?

    Isn't that a function of the DNS server?

    It could be. I wonder because sometimes lynx returns an error message
    saying that something could not be recognized. This happens most often
    with files with an normal url suffix but this led me to wonder about domain types.
