[dev] hgweb typically sucks

[Ethan Grammatikidis]

Looking at the list of "other projects" on suckless.org some catch my  
eye, so I click on them & get taken to a hgweb site. Okay, no problem  
so far, so I click on a file, micy's micy.c for example. Between the  
syntax highlighting and the crazy two-tone background my old eyes  
can't read it so I click raw... and I'm not allowed to view it in my  
browser!

I have to download the file and then resort to some other program to  
find and read the thing, which is not the point of using a browser in  
the first place. Who wants to save a single file from a project  
anyway, and if they do what browser doesn't have a perfectly good  
"save as" option anyway?

I like to browse these things occasionally to get a bit of a deeper  
idea of what they do in case I want them in the future, but I'm not  
going to bother with a whole hg clone into some temp dir just to get  
enough info on something to make it stick in my memory.
