The main problem with emacs-w3m is that it depends on the external w3m program, so it's an additional hassle. Now that Emacs proper has an HTML parser (via libxml2), an HTML renderer (via shr.el), and an HTTP library (via url*.el), writing a totally Emacs-based web browser should be pretty easy for somebody who has some time to spare. Which, unfortunately, rules me out, for the time being. :-) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no * Sent from my Emacs
