The display of a simple .lis file using Netscape alone is "okay".  I
have not had the .lis file cause Netscape to error out.  Of course the
browser alone does not interpret the printer control codes.  You can
tweak the font and margin settings to get simple text reports to print
out ALMOST correctly but it is a hassle.  When you add a PCL viewer
plug-in to the browser the report displays and prints exactly the same
as if you sent it directly to a printer.
