nor I.  It seems that with Klaus' TRST code, the main reason why that doesn't
"always" render simple tables is when they get too wide.  Rendering into
a viewport-style window would allow a simple implementation of left/right
scrolling.

yes, I'm aware that there are complex tables that TRST doesn't address,
but making lynx assume that the screen is much wider would let us think
about that as a separate problem.
