Lynx - Downloading - extension handling - changing mime type?

Using Lynx, when I try to download a .rar, it confirms I want to download and its got it as an appication/rar file.
However, split archives that end in .r## (.r00, .r01 ...) are not recognized as an appication/rar file and it reads the file like a .txt or .html.
How can I fix this?

Thanks!

Are you able to use a different text mode download tool? You don't mention what OS you're on, but if, as I suspect, you're a linux user, then you should have easy access to wget or curl, which would probably do quite nicely for this situation.

A bit late... I think I resolved this with wget and a cookie file
