Agreed. I didn't know this until now. I will update my patch later today.


I'd like to request that the wretchedly ugly Courier font *NOT* be
hardcoded in to 2html.vim. I always end up removing it when I use 2html.
The font-family should either be just "monospace" or allow a global
variable to set the font.

I favour the variable, but courier is a good default. Most books use
the courier font for verbatim text like code, it is the globally
recognized "this part is code" font.

Again I will update my patch and reply when done.

Best Regards

Edd
