OK: using Jiri's font.e package, write an include file to
display <HTML> code. There are lots of uses for such a utility,
so make it a function callable from within our programs.
It would be useful for displaying help files, as a simple
local browser, or even as a front-end for other programs.
After all, there are a lot of programs that would work fine
and look nicer with a simple "form" capability such as you
see on the web every day.
I suggest as a minimum:

<H1>..<H6> and standard fonts
color hilighted links (your function would return the name of the link)
<code> or <pre> for program listing type layout, otherwise
text wraps automatically.
<form> with input fields for text entry and some buttons
<IMG SRC> to include graphics (a must!)
<BACKGROUND> to liven up things.
