Okay. I've got a handle on the escapes, and just want to use w3m
to delegate the pre-processing of non-graphical html, but I can't make it work.

I've set NETSCAPE to /usr/bin/w3m and exported (/etc/profile) it and made 
/etc/a2ps.cfg read:

${NETSCAPE:-w3m} '$f'

(w3m accepts relative paths)

but it still isn't working.

Help!
