w3m - arrow keys

[Hadron]

Is there a way to allow the cursor keys to direct the cursor to freely
wander character by character around text in a w3m buffer as opposed to
jump between forms/links etc?

(define-key w3m-mode-map [down] 'next-line)
(define-key w3m-mode-map [up] 'previous-line)
(define-key w3m-mode-map [right] 'forward-char)
(define-key w3m-mode-map [left] backward-char)

There's an extension which gives info-like keybindings to emacs-w3m.

heh, I figured it might come to that. I guess I was hoping for a key
"release" toggle or something.

thanks.

What's the difference to setting `w3m-key-binding' to 'info?

I've tried it out and there seems to be no difference at all. Maybe
w3mnav was merged into emacs-w3m...

Thanks for the tip,
