I'm trying to dump some web pages with very long paragraphs, and it's
important to maintain correct paragraph boundaries. I tried:
$ lynx -dump -width 1000000 mypage.html
but it seems paragraphs still get wrapped at about 1000 characters.
Is there a hard limit on the maximum paragraph wrap width? Can it be
increased?

1000000 as a width seems high, and unlikely to render on any screen
I've ever seen. Are the pages on a webserver you control, or are you
-dumping out someone else's pages?
It sounded as if he's dumping <pre> text that is using lynx to
do wrapping. For that sort of case, he's limited by lynx's maximum
line-length.
