Subject: Plain text versions of hwg.org pages

Any HTML file on www.hwg.org is now also available in a plain text
format. To get a plain text version of a page, just use an extension
of ".txt" instead of ".html". For example:

    http://www.hwg.org/index.txt
    http://www.hwg.org/lists/index.txt
    http://www.hwg.org/resources/html/validation.txt

Cool, eh? And it only took about 20 lines of Perl. (The actual formatting
is done with Lynx.) I'm not sure it's actually useful for anything,
but it might be.
