Is it some progenitor of Emacs-w3m? I previously ran into mention of Emacs W3 and therefore had researched these references already. http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/w3 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emacs/W3 > If you'd consider using w3m, or w3m code perhaps still > works for you, I have written a lightning-fast system > for all kinds of searches - just bind it to a global > keystroke, and search (not just with Goggle) from > anywhere in Emacs - also, it suggests the region text > as default, and has other cool stuff as well. > > http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573/conf/emacs-init/w3m/search.el Because the original poster mentions emacspeak I presume that is the reason for using W3. W3 is the first listed application in the web task list. I presume they might be visually impaired and have been using it this way for quite some time and will be accustomed to the way emacs W3 works. But I think that emacspeak will work well with w3m too because w3m is listed in the list of web applications for emacspeak too. http://www.emacswiki.org/EmacSpeak http://emacspeak.sourceforge.net/ Bob
