+specified by the html itself in a <meta> directive.

+.BI -u " url
+Use
+.I url
+as the base URL for the document when displaying anchors; sets
+.BI -a .

+.SH BUGS
+.I Htmlfmt
+makes no attempt to render the two-dimensional geometry of tables;
+it just treats the table entries as plain, to-be-formatted text.
