Yes I was using a proxy. However, I don't think it
was a proxy error, as I had downloaded a couple of
other files using the same lynx session; further lynx
detected the content-type & went till the 'save to
disk' screen. I guess it did not save for some reason
& did not tell me the reason (or I missed it !)
Anyway, now everything looks fine.
thx
