How do you save it as text using Lynx? I read Bookshare books in brf format, but sometimes it's better to have, say, a technical book as straight text.

Speaking only for myself, I have a suggestion.
unzip the file and see if loading the XML in Firefox works for you.
this is not how i read them personally. but if you want to use Firefox
that might do the trick.
I personally load the XML into lynx, save it as text, and read it in
wordperfect, but that is me.

I downloaded a bookshare book, and the opnly options i had were dazi

but not for me.
The mp3 option won't work, because it's reading various linux commands
as abbreviations for other things, and that's not helpful.  Converting
to brf is
obviously not the answer either.  I have no html files or options to
have it saved as html.
I think I've covered it.  What's missing here?
