I think it makes a lot more sense to implement this as a standalone

functionality by doing that, and there's no compelling reason for adding
the extra complexity to the tree-dumpers themselves if we don't need to.
Certainly it can be a useful idea to have more ways of viewing the dump
files than just reading the plaintext in a text editor, but it seems
more sensible to me to consider the plaintext-to-HTML conversion as an
aspect of a standalone "viewer" system, rather than as an aspect of the
compiler.

I'm agree. A script that does the plaintext-to-HTML conversion is far better
than modifying the complex GCC compiler i'd made fatally it.
