Now you're telling me.. :-)

I indeed see it in the NEWS file:

* enhancement: ``elinks --dump'' uses box-drawing characters if
* supported by the charset.

I haven't tried it, but this looks promising. 

Thanks for the good news.

Will try that out. Thanks.

Not sure how it would know it should fill the gaps left between line
drawing character though.

 Only other thing that comes to mind is that if it's just the tables
 bothering you, you might be able to write a script to postprocess the
 output of ?elinks -dump? and replace the pluses and dashes by the
 better-looking line-drawing characters and add it as a filter to the
 pipe above.

Yes. Sounds a bit challenging with + used in table corners as well as
within table etc. (for example).

 I doubt they do better than ELinks.

Checked already. I prefer elinks output.
