I'm sorry. I can't reproduce the error (I'm sure I mixed up
something). But I can remember my starting point: It was
a </pre> not capitalized and a <PRE> additonaly insert (last item below).

The following is reproduceable:

	- GET goes to an endless loop:

		echo test > yy.html; GET -o html yy.html
  
	  It's buggy HTMl but GET should not try to consumes all cpu time
	  forever :-(  (perl5.001m, OSF1 V3.0)
	
	- Here the only extra <P> inserted I could find today (shame, shame
	  shame on me):

o01(2) ~/perl > cat > zz.html
test o01(2) ~/perl > GET -o html zz.html

test 

o01(0) ~/perl > 

	- Appended is a part of my home page. Have a look at the 
	  </pre> after the bike driver after you convert it with GET -o html.
	  It is not converted to </PRE> but almost at the end 
	  after the two <HR><HR> a </PRE> is inserted.

	  If it is desired that the comment is stripped, I don't know.


Last but not least: Here a suggestion (category: nice to have): For small
test examples it would be handy to:

	echo '<html><body>test' | GET -o html -

Best wishes,
Achim
