The clipboard contents can be retrieved using Lynx's PASTE_URL command (in turn, via $RL_PASTE_CMD). CTRL-V - Outside of a text input line or field, switch to <a href= "option_help.html#tagsoup">alternative parsing</a> of HTML. - In a form text input field, CTRL-V prompts for a key command (allows <a href= "../Lynx_users_guide.html#CtrlVNote">escaping</a> from the field). Note that on most UNIX hosts, CTRL-V is bound via stty to the lnext (literal-next) code but the exact behavior of that is implementation specific. On Solaris you must type CTRL-V twice to use it, since it quotes the following keystroke. CTRL-U - Inside text input line or field, erase input line (<a href= "edit_help.html">more input line commands</a>) - Outside of text input or field, undo returning to previous topic. CTRL-G - Cancel input or transfer CTRL-T - Toggle trace mode on and off ; - View the Lynx Trace Log for the current session CTRL-K - Invoke the <a href= "cookie_help.html">Cookie Jar Page</a> CTRL-X - Invoke the <a href= "../Lynx_users_guide.html#Cache">Cache Jar Page</a> <em>numbers</em> - Invoke the prompt <a href= "follow_help.html">Follow link (or goto link or page) number:</a> or the <a href= "follow_help.html#select-option">Select option (or page) number:</a> prompt </pre> </body> </html>
