ok thanks, i may try that, but other tools give more
satisfying results than lynx -dump for preserving
formatting by default, but Lynx seems to give the most
"readable" result (outside of the spacing issues).

i'd be more interested in pursuing this if it were a bug,
and there were a possibility of having -underscore in a
future release for all my lynxen where recompilation
is problematic.

perhaps the documentation is misleading?

  -underscore
      toggles use of _underline_ format in dumps.

aw. a "no_wrap" option (width=-1 ?) would be so great.

i'm interested in getting Markdown compatible output. so
far, this is proving difficult.
