Yes, indeed the table does have a WIDTH attribute. There are also <col>'s and
<td>'s with the WIDTH attribute. Many of the <TABLE>s' WIDTH have a value
like
638.
How does w3m convert this large table width value into a text column width
(like 80 columns)? Will the WIDTH attributes on the <col>'s and <td>'s also
have to be removed? (It looks like it might.)
Is there a way to make w3m think that 78 columns is wide enough to handle
a table of WIDTH 638.
I'd prefer not to have to edit either the input or the output to do this sort
of conversion. I sort of wish it was pilot error. ;)
