You can always type "lynx -version" with the existing version you have. If it has SSL support, it will state this quite plainly. For example, here is what I get with the stock lynx in Slackware 8.1 where they finally put SSL in by default. Lynx Version 2.8.4rel.1 (17 Jul 2001) libwww-FM 2.14, SSL-MM 1.4.1, OpenSSL 0.9.6c Built on linux-gnu Apr 15 2002 17:51:47 Copyrights held by the University of Kansas, CERN, and other contributors. Distributed under the GNU General Public License. See http://lynx.browser.org/ and the online help for more information. See http://www.moxienet.com/lynx/ for information about SSL for Lynx. See http://www.openssl.org/ for information about OpenSSL. The second line gives the version of Openssl that it was built with, and I'm pretty sure the lines about SSL and their web addresses aren't shown in a non-SSL version.
