   Thank you.   
       [ For fellow newbies who may ask "Where is the tarball?"   
         https://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/#source     ]   
      
   When going there I discovered an accessibility issue with   
   https://archive.seamonkey-project.org/releases/2.53.21/README.txt .   
      
   I'm a tri-focal wearing octogenarian with perception[better term???]   
   issues. I use SeaMonkey's Edit->Preferences->Appearance->Fonts to force   
   a comfortably readable size. That forces a "large hunk" of some lines   
   off-screen. If a full sentence is not visible I have comprehension issues.   
      
   I'm working on a HTML style to address the issue. It was originally   
   prompted by Seniors at church having problems with their preferred Bible   
   on their preferred browser. But "README.txt" is a convenient well   
   formatted HTML file demonstrating the issue.   
      
   Further discussion in this thread would be OT.   
   But my question is "Would it be acceptably "On Topic" for this list?".
