Oh, thank you. :) Some code is not clean and more proof-of-concept.

Hmm I can find neither prep nor lynX in a quick Web search.
Po files are separate from the source code files. I don’t know if
prep has such a separation or if such a separation really is better.
Then again, another issue with HTML/SHTML is that e.g. a hyperlink within
the text is difficult to handle with traditional format strings
without breaking the separation:
* The link text should be translated in the context of the text
surrounding the link
* but the link formatting and maybe the link destination URL maybe
should not be changeable by the translator.
Does prep handle this?
