Not at the moment.  We debated whether to go with a more versatile
format for report generation, but came to the conclusion that HTML
was the only viable option for now.

There are, however, HTML/text converters available - you could try
running the generated HTML through those and see if that's
satisfactory.

Failing that, if you can write Scheme, you can write your own reports
that spit out text instead of HTML.
