generally, you can go to ftp directories, and get a rev-like listing: put ftp://user:p...@host.com/directory/; into theListOfFiles if you know that and still want to use the list command yourself, then i suggest to use shell, because rev doesn't open the data connection for you, and it seems

It's not your job to make your bug voting habit the way runrev wants it to be. it's runrevs task to make the vote system work in a way that is useful to them. If the current system is not useful to them, then: a.) your votes are superfluous, as they ignore votes, or use them only in border

Making a bare-bone http server is not very. Andre has made html servers using runrev stacks. He tends to add dozens of features tho, probably to confuse people and make them think it's very hard ;) basically you need to accept stuff on port x (normally 80), and then follow the http protocol

A http server (like on-rev) needs to always return something. making that something (as in your case) be html/html seems to be rather unusual and nondescript, but should work. still you might want to check the result in your rev stack, to make sure the script on the server actually works

It's a rev stack, and you can set the default font (of the field the content is shown in) to a larger size... however most of the text has it's own style, and those are set by scripts, so you'd need to go trough the scripts and set them yourself. There's a chance that you change the wrong
