Lynx-cert will make use of the SSLeay libraries written by Eric Young (eay@cryptosoft.com) to provide the necessary SSL support. A recent version of SSLeay (0.8.0 or later) will be required. It will additionally use patches by Tom Zerucha (tz@execpc.com) which were ultimately adapted by Foteos Macrides for lynx. Additions for lynx-cert will go on top of the 2.7.1 lynx code base.
