a much more, f you're asking my opinion, noteworthy and fairly easy task,
would be to take the display_*.c code and add a switch to print html as
well as text.

that was actually the original intention, except i never got round to
doing the html.

then, making these programs run as a swat-like daemon is absolutely
trivial.

hmm.  an interesting, intriguing project :)
