No.  The right way to do these things is for the mailcap writer to
specify a `needsterm' property for the entry.  It should look
something like:

    text/html;lynx -force_html %s; needsterm

The stuff with needsterm specified need to be invoked using `xterm
-exec FOO', if XEmacs is running under a window system.
