Hi Jack,

I am clearing up my inbox, and I see that this one was not answered.

I think it's fine. I will add it to the server, as this:

pre.LyX-Code {
       margin: 0em 3%;
}

As a % of page width so that browsers on smaller windows don't get
swamped. Is this good enough? If so, I will upload it to nongnu.org
ASAP (no need to wait for 0.44). I have also noticed a bug: with <pre>
there is no need to include line breaks <br/>, but they are there.
This I will correct for 0.44.

Thanks for your patience,

Alex.
