THis is what happens when I try it:  

Stella [Top-Level]: (setf cm::*help-browser* :lynx)
:LYNX
Stella [Top-Level]: (setf cm::*help-browser-command* "lynx")
"lynx"
Stella [Top-Level]: help
/bin/bash: setenv: command not found
Error opening terminal: emacs.

Was this supposed to run lynx in an emacs shell-mode window, or would it
run Lynx in a seperate xterm window. If the former, that might be an
interesting alternative to W3, which is slow and overkill.
