is it possible to render a page in single column when dumping?
For example, given a page: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7449704.stm
Elinks's strength is that it can render the page in 3 columns, making it close 
to the original page. This is undoubtly a good featrue for viewing. But if I 
want to process the dump of the page later based on paragraphs and sentences, 
the texts in those columns will be messed up, and it is difficult to separate 
the paragraph and sentences out afterwards. I find that lynx can do so (or 
actually it is a weakness point in lynx), but lynx just does not do well in 
non-ascii contents. As a result, I would like to ask whether Elinks can render 
the columns in sequential manner, making it a single column:

heading / titles
---
col 1


---
col 2


---
col 3


---
footer

If it is not supported in the original code, could I some how study the 
sources to make it?

Thanks!!!
