That may look like a minor change in appearance, but it would require
major changes in the code. At the point where the IMG tag is processed,
the A in front of it (which starts an anchor) has already been passed on
to the next stage. All my patch does is prevent the generation of the
"[ISMAP]" anchor text (if clickable_images are not wanted), but the link
is still there... It just cannot be selected with the cursor keys, but
it still gets a "link number" and appears on the 'L' LIST, like any
<A HREF=...></A> link without anchor text between <A> and </A>.
