A much easier approach is to sed your binary so that the FONT tag
no longer recognises the FACE attribute.  Having done that, I would
never consider going back.

The FONT SIZE attribute is next on the chopping block, but I haven't
quite decided on that one yet -- because I have, in fact, seen web pages
whose appearance was improved by the use of multiple font sizes, though
I have never (not once, not ever) seen one where face changes have been
anything but irritating.
