Text reflow woes (or: I want bullets back!)y

It was thus said that the Great solderpunk once stated:

  I just added something similar to my server:

	gemini://gemini.conman.org/test/testwrap.gemini

It has links to texts of various widths.  You can test other widths by going
to:

	gemini://gemini.conman.org/test/wrap;77

Replace the number at the end with your preferred width (keep the semicolon
though), and text will wrap at that point.  The lower limit is 1 and there's
no upper limit.  That happens to be the only page where you can specify the
width, by the way.
