Lynx Tips & Tricks (Cheats)

This page is maintained by Kurt Olsen (kurto@cc.usu.edu.)

This is a comprehensive listing Atari Lynx tips, tricks and cheats. It is maintained by Peter Hvezda. His comments are below.
The LYNX Cheats file was originally created and maintained by Damian Gick. He unfortunately lost his net access and couldn't continue his support. The honour of maintaining the LYNX Cheats file was then passed on to Kevin (Tazzzzz) Dangoor, who provided exemplary service to the LYNX community by not only maintaining the Cheats file but also compiling all of Robert Jung's game reviews into one handy file. As an added service he made these files available through a highly efficient mail server. Kevin sold his Lynx and has passed on the torch of maintaining both the Reviews and Cheat files to yours truly. I have some big shoes to fill, and I will do my best to carry on the tradition set forth by my predecessors.

The LYNX cheat file is now more comprehensive than ever before. I have added several more tips and tricks as well as changing the format slightly. I hope that you will find the changes refreshing and I look forward to any comments or suggestions that you may have about them. Incidentally, the LYNX Cheat file is also available in RTF format (which includes bitmapped maps). If you would like to submit any tips or tricks that you have come across or discovered, please e-mail them to the address listed below.

The FAQ, the Lynx Game Reviews, and the Lynx Cheat files now reside at the anonymous ftp site: ftp.mantis.co.uk in /pub/uploads. Special thanks should be extended to Mathew for maintaining the ftp site and mail server.
