        Some articles mark the items in a list (a conceptual list, not
an HTML list) with characters that lynx doesn't render literally.  For
instance:

        #       name            lynx rendition
        25cb 'large circle'     0m
        25ca 'lozenge'          LZ
        25a0 'filled square'    fS
        25a1 'open square'      OS

and many more.  I think I see the logic, but most authors leave no
space between the item-marker and the text that follows.  This looks
okay with browsers that display graphical characters but requires
figuring out in lynx.  I can't remember any other use of these
characters so I've added spaces to their renditions.
