Thanks.  That made the output much better.  But now for another question.
Is there a way to get the text closer to the left margin?  My output seems
to have a 10 character indent for all text.  This causes some lines to
wrap past column 80.  I've also got some sequences of  <ESC>[9 in the text.
These seem to be on lines that are centered, but now always.  Sample output
follows.
