v.net.iso/description.html, for example, uses <pre> where it could
have used <code>, thus causing horizontal scrolling on e.g., PDAs.

g.html2man doesn't support the <code> tag for formatting the man pages
from the HTML pages, but I suppose that could be changed.

According to
http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/phrase/code.html
it should be
<PRE><CODE>
code1
code2
</CODE></PRE>
right?

H> right?
It says "can", not must: "Since spacing is often important when
presenting computer code, the PRE element can be useful as a container
for CODE elements."
Anyway, to be sure your pages look good, narrow down your browser and
see what gets stuck. One liners needn't use <PRE> that badly.
By the way, on some PDAs, go too far and you can even forget about
horizontal scrolling. The text become unaccessible.

What's the best way to approach this? Correct the worst-offending man pages by
hand, or create some kind of script to find and replace all occurences of
<PRE> with <PRE><CODE> and </PRE> with </PRE></CODE>?
