| M runs the command w3m-view-url-with-external-browser
|   which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `w3m.el'.
| It is bound to M.
| (w3m-view-url-with-external-browser &optional URL)
| 
| Launch the external browser and display the same web page.
| If the cursor points to a link, it visits the url of the link instead
| of the url currently displayed.  The browser is defined in
| `w3m-content-type-alist' for every type of a url.
