Thanks again Chime,
I made a couple of simple edits and it works well.
As I have a French keyboard I changed the EXTERNAL_LINK keymap to ';'.
Hitting ";" on a link will execute ythandler in gopher pages, or any other
option I might add.
+--- lynx.cfg ---------------------------------------------------+
KEYMAP:,:EXTERN_PAGE KEYMAP:;:EXTERN_LINK
EXTERNAL_MENU: http:Reader:rdrview --disable-sandbox -T title -B "lynx -cfg /home/philip/.config/lynx/lynx.cfg" '%s':TRUE
EXTERNAL_MENU::Youtube:ythandler '%s':TRUE
+--- ythandler --------------------------------------------------+
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# open youtube link in mpv
URL=$1 URL= https:$(awk -F' https%3a' '{print $2}' <<< "$URL")
notify-send "Launching mpv $URL" mpv $URL >/dev/null 2>&1 &
