Not 100% sure what you are after, but you can always warp any text file with
the following - will display in most browsers!

<html>
<body>
<pre>

--- the contents of the text file ----

</pre>
</body>
</html>

You need to make sure you escape these characters in the contents: < becomes
&lt;  > becomes &gt;  & becomes &amp;
There is a whole list of other escapes you can use, but with most browsers
the above 3 seem to be all that is needed.
