Heres some other thoughts: Use case: text flow around images, which would improve w3m experience. a test hack could be to use emacs image-slicing to slice an image in equal row-height slices, to display text around the image. (maybe the image slices could be locked in place, dunno) this is like "rowspan" if an emacs window is a html table. would maybe be cool with a :rowspan display property. Some other ideas: - check out "row overlap" mentioned in dispextern.h - see if an image could automatically fill a number of "display matrix cells" > martin -- Joakim Verona
