Next interesting idea:  in Firefox:  File -> Page Setup -> Margins
lets you set left, right, top, bottom margins.
Aha! That works!

I was going to ask how to save those page margins so I could toggle back
and forth between them and "regular" pages, but I think I'll solve that
by setting up another browser with my desired Page Setup settings.

For more than you wanted to know, google  firefox about:config

Oh, I've poked around in about.config quite a bit (and the file it modifies, prefs.js, as well). Never really monkeyed with the print.* settings, but I could play around with that a bit.

Are you using CUPS to manage your printers?  You could define a
different printer there, and the CUPS printer configuration GUI has
3x5 index card as one of the possible paper sizes.

That was the original place I was going to try to add the card to my list of paper sizes, but it wasn't in there. Turns out this was a driver issue, and using 'pxlmono' (the recommended driver) doesn't have a 3x5 option, but 'hpijs' (everybody's favorite HP Linux driver) does.

Unfortunately, though, Firefox seems to throw up its own Printer Properties dialog, and even when using hpijs I can't get the browser to offer a 3x5 choice.

Looks like just using a different browser for this purpose should work out OK, though... and I can take out the toolbars and set the homepage to simplegtd.com, so it's almost like using seamonkey as a wrapper to make simplegtd its own app.
