So here's what I'm planning:
Read all the stdin till we hit end-of-file, treat it as whatever type
is specified on the command line, and process it as the home document.
Probably need two new command-line switches, --stdin-type=foo and
--stdin-url=foo, to allow you to specify the stdin

Preferences panel. What I'm suggesting is that we have a way to set a
default font for that pdb
The MSN change has affected Slate.com, an online magazine owned by MS.
The re-styling is so bad that I figured I'd start plucking it instead

XHTML, and contains a number of the standard odd characters. I

A somewhat difficult merge--probably missed at least one thing somewhere
along the way.
If someone could test it out and see what things need correcting, especially
