1: When I download big report from SEC's EDGAR system, some of the
financial reports are WIDE. I have learned to download the
\-source instead -- there's not too much html-command stuff in
it, and at least I get the wide stuff "as is" -- which I can
then display on my local computer, wide (eg full screen on
20-inch sun console).
2: As I recall from grabbing it "rendered" (ie without the "\"),
it didn't TRUNCATE the lines, it just "wrapped" them onto
the next line, by inserting a newline at column 80 or so,
and then I'd have to tedioiusly get rid of those of the
newlines I didn't want, so the lines got wide again.
3: yeah, it would be nice if there were a way (and maybe there
already is in lynx) to tell it to render the html "wide" --
ESPECIALLY for "verbatim" stuff, like program-examples,
financial reports with wide lines, etc.
4: I SUPPOSE one COULD download the \-source, then munge it
with some kind of a filter-program, and THEN run it
through lynx to render ("compile?", what vocab word to use?)
wide, as DICTATED by the munged .html-file....
