Not a bad idea. AFAICS we have the generation of HISTORY down to a
script now; there's no reason for it to be in CVS at all. It'd be nice
to do the same for INSTALL, but I'm not sure if that takes any manual
twiddling or not. (Peter?)
The version of lynx that's on cvs.postgresql.org seems to produce okay
output (it's what I ended up using yesterday), so standardizing on that
wouldn't be a problem.
