The following HTML displays how I want it to, in both MSIE and Mozilla,
howerver, an online validator gives me all sorts of error messages. Can
someone suggest a way to make it more "kosher"?
It is generated from a Unix script that I wrote

By fixing the errors reported by the validator, no?

A title is required.

The font element is obsolete, can't contain block elements (like <pre>) and
only goes up to 7 anyway. Use CSS instead.

Buck, you also should put a DOCTYPE at the beginning of your document.
Help on choosing a DOCTYPE:
<http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/doctype.html>.
The W3C validator at <http://validator.w3.org/> really enjoys flipping
out over all the errors like an unmuted car alarm. You might want to use
the WDG validator at <http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/>, which
catches the same errors, but is friendlier about them.

Add some CSS to position the PRE elements as you wish (margins, position
etc). Before, it didn't read linerarly (as if read left to right).
