[Pan-users] HTML Previewer - how to use?

[Jim Henderson]

I ran across a couple of posts on gmane that were sent from gmail, which 
notoriously sends everything in HTML unless you take specific steps (that 
most users don't even know about) to send plain-text only.

I know there'd been some discussion in the past about doing some sort of 
HTML rendering (or stripping, ala claws) to deal with situations like 
that, but ultimately that discussion didn't really seem to go anywhere.

In one of the discussions, Duncan mentioned that there's this "HTML 
Previewer" setting in the preferences, and I thought I'd take a look at 
that, but I'm not familiar enough with the code to track down how to 
actually use it.  I tried putting html2text in the field, but the field 
clears after saving the preferences (I tried with the path and without it) 
- but I also noticed that the down arrow to select other options is also 
greyed out (unlike the text editor setting above it).

Just out of curiosity (more than anything), has anyone either worked out 
how to use this or actually gotten it to work?
