OpenBSD-4.6/gnu/usr.bin/lynx/docs/README.metrics
This is a short summary of code metrics showing how lynx has grown from
release to release. It also shows how the original codebase has
been almost completely replaced by contributors after the release of
lynx 2.4.2 in 1996. The numbers shown are for lines of text, to keep
the presentation simple.

Beginning with 2.8.6, the fraction of remaining original codebase is an
estimate, since all C source code is automatically indented using the
indent.sh script. That added 7216 lines of change since it was not possible
to completely match the hand-edited indention scheme. Note that the actual
fraction of remaining original codebase is more likely at the lower bound,
e.g., about 8% rather than 12%.
Current lynx releases contain a large amount of text other than C code.
That includes plain text, html, message libraries, custom and generated
scripts.
