Sorry if this is the densest comment ever, but why not just write the
readme in very simple html and make the text version with lynx -dump
instead?
Seems to me that you know html, so that can't be the reason, and surely
writing a tag here or there is no less difficult than learning wierd rules
like "make the ==== underlines exactly the same length as the line before
it."

"[T]hey said something to the effect that Linux has 'the tendency not to
crash.' ... It's like me listing 'the tendency not to murder people' as one of
my good character traits. :-> It seems that people have grown so accustomed to
buggy OS's that when Linux simply does what it's supposed to do, it comes
across as something new and different." Scott Webster on linux-biz 20 Feb 1999
