Or a large buffer with stacking. I have an awk script that makes just one
pass, but it has to store everything until the </TABLE> and dump it out
(or dump it into a higher one for nested tables).
www.mich.com/~thomas/ftp t2tgrnest.awk or something similar.
You *can* do it in one pass, but it is almost as ugly a solution.
But what it *DOES* need is horizontal scrolling since 132 or 160 wide
tables are not uncommon. They are evil even on GUI browsers since I have
to scroll my peephole over the data.
