[Pine-info] PC-Pine file browser

This is usually b/c something like lynx:
http://lynx.browser.org/
...is available on the *nix system and PINE hands URLs off to it.

I've never used PC-PINE, but if it's just launching the default browser,
you could use the same text-only browser on Windows (aka, lynx):
http://lynx.isc.org/
http://home.pacific.net.sg/~kennethkwok/lynx/
http://www.vordweb.co.uk/standards/download_lynx.htm
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser)
...if you can set it to be the default Windows browser.

Of course, if you need a more "mainstream" browser in Windows, the above
may be more annoying than helpful.

If PC-PINE is as configurable as the *nix version, you might be able to
keep your Firefox as the default on Windows, but have PC-PINE hand URLs
to lynx, unless Steve is speaking from experience and this method is not
possible at all?

FYI,
-Matt
