Complete stab in the dark ..

What happens if you move the font configure line after the browse method
call? I wonder if loading a page clears tags.

I've started using the shtmlview widget to display html versions of man pages created by `exec man -Thtml $filename > $html`.

I want shtmlview to use a monospace font. I've created such a font but I can't
work out how to do this.

I've tried:

font create Mono -family $family -size $size
:
$View helptext tag configure mono -font Mono
:
$View browse $htmlurl
$View helptext tag add mono 1.0 end

where $View is a shtmlview widget, but it has no effect.
Yet when I do, say,

$View helptext configure -background pink

it works fine.

Ideally, I'd like to set the body font, and bold and italic.
