Navigate to the URL, then `C-x w' (write-file) and save it to, say, page.txt. Check what kind of file it is with 'file'. If it says it is UTF-8 or whatever, you can use 'recode -f ascii page.txt'. (-f will drop things that cannot be recoded.) Emacs-w3m and recode has to be aptituded from the repositories. -- underground experts united: http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
