Can you check what coding system is displayed for =20 you in mode-line? I have "-u:" which stands for UTF-8. Do you have =20 set in your .emacs file some non-UTF-8 *-coding-system? How is it when you launch your Emacs with -Q? For the test you can =20 create a small init file that extends the load-path to find w3m, =20 requires w3m, and which you can load from the command line with '-l =20 '. -- Greetings Pete The future will be much better tomorrow. -- George W.
