LOL, you finally found the magic of lynx. At my first year at university, the internet was so slow, we end up using telnet or putty to check emails, IRC-ing, and lynx-ing to browse the WWW. XDDD
I second ciaran_h, use the left arrow button under the group of middle buttons (insert, print screen, home, end and 5 other buttons)
Hmmm, now I wonder. Just how much faster would certain sites be if I visited them using lynx instead of firefox? I shall have to experiment and see, ohoho.
It's super fast, since it only loads text. :D However for sites with sidebar first-content later, it's a bit annoying since you have to Ctrl+V (Page Down) a couple of times.

Oh, and if you click a link and want to cancel the load, press Z.

I've hit the left arrow key before, but I didn't notice it do anything. I think I was confused. I'll have to experiment more with it.
And thank you so much for explaining the z part! I was hitting escape, which did nothing, and it frustrated me so much.

I don't know why, but it fascinates me. It's so clean and neat. No images, just text. No clutter! (Well maybe a bit of clutter, but...)

It's super fast! --> that was the tagline.
I still use it from time to time, to test on my websites and if the visual browsers failed to connect.

I only use that when I get Xorg working in my Linux OS.
