I would like to use w3m to format the inevitable HTML mail from my employer. This has worked before, but since getting a new computer it doesn't work. I had my old .emacs and .gnus files, but after messing around with them I removed all references to w3m vars and functions and started over. I d/l and installed emacs-w3m v. 1.4.3. I couldn't compile the latest version of w3m under cygwin, but I had an older version (v. 0.4.1) available, and this works flawlessly under cygwin bash. Also, if I start emacs from bash inside the console, M-x w3m works fine and I can browse. But when I try to do the same thing in "normal" windows mode, I just get a blank buffer. I see the w3m menubar and the tabs, but no output. When entering remote URL, ir just says "Request sent, waiting for response...done". Any ideas of what might cause this? Is it a question of w3m's output being redirected somewhere else? tia /g. -- Gustaf Erikson * mobile 0733387618 * http://gustaf.symbiandiaries.com/weblog MS-Windows: Elevating brain damage to an art form.
