Well, if you wanted to print an html-Version of the document it would
not be less...

btw.: Perhaps the best solution would be an abstract sgml or xml

It never will be perfect. You should configure the basic elements and
then use fvwm. You will see what is missing and can add this
funtionality in a growing matter.

Yes, ok. But you will understand it better while you are using it. ;)
