History

   This project has been in active development continuously since 2000.

   Originally, there had been a separate project Emacs/W3 which in its time was the
   most popular web browser on Emacs, but it suffered from slow operation. The
   decision was made to create this alternative, based upon Akinori Ito's [13]w3m
   text-mode pager which had WWW capability.

   As of 2018, the project has been actively developed and supported for nearly two
   decades, but since 2005 it has been releasing updates in a "rolling" manner,
   directly from its CVS repository (although un-official third-party mirrors exist
   on [14]MELPA and [15]github).

   Here's the history of the old milestones under the prior system of issuing
   'stable' releases:
     * CVS rolling release, from 2005 to 2018+
     * [16]Emacs-w3m-1.4.4 was released on March 25th, 2005.
     * [17]Emacs-w3m-1.4.3 was released on August 17th, 2004.
     * [18]Emacs-w3m-1.4.2 was released on July 14th, 2004.
     * [19]Emacs-w3m-1.4.1 was released on July 7th, 2004.
     * All services were restored on June 23rd, 2004. All contents of this site and
       CVS repository had been throughly inspected.
     * [20]This site was cracked on May 23rd, 2004.
     * [21]Emacs-w3m-1.4 was released on April 29th, 2004.

Download

   The official current version is always available from our own CVS repository.
   However, we recognize that it may be more convenient for users to download and
   update the package using the un-official third-party mirrors that exist on
   [22]MELPA and [23]github. We need to say that those mirrors are not controlled by
   this project and we have no way of knowing or guaranteeing their reliability or
   integrity.

   This project uses the [24]cvs[[25]1] version control system, so in order to
   download the current version from the official source, you need to have cvs
   installed.

% cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.namazu.org:/storage/cvsroot login
CVS password: # No password is set.  Just hit Enter/Return key.
% cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.namazu.org:/storage/cvsroot co emacs-w3m

   Source code access with [26]ViewVC is also available.

Requirements

     * Emacs versions
       Emacs-w3m supports the latest two major stable versions of Emacs. Thus, when
       the latest stable Emacs was 26.1, Emacs-w3m was supporting versions 26.1,
       25.3, 25.2, and 25.1.
       Older versions of Emacs may still be able to successfully use the current
       version of emacs-w3m, but as the current versions of Emacs or ELisp
       themselves change, deprecate, or remove features, the latest version of
       emacs-w3m can be expected to keep pace, and thus will gradually lose
       functionality when run in older Emacs versions.
       Pre-release versions of Emacs and even development snapshots are unofficially
       supported, as we do try to keep the code up-to-date, so if you are using a
       "bleeding edge" Emacs version and do experience a problem, please do file a
       bug report by contacting us on our mailing list!
     * w3m
       Emacs-w3m requires the latest version of [49]w3m.

   Optionally, if you would like to use the [50]shimbun library included in the
   emacs-w3m distribution, you have to install the Emacs packages [51]APEL and
   [52]FLIM.
     ____________________________________________________________________________

Installation

   If you are installing from the un-official third-party MELPA repository, the
   install process follows the standard MELPA procedure. The rest of this section
   describes how to install manually from source.

   Before installing emacs-w3m, check whether your environment meets [53]the
   requirements.

  Installing emacs-w3m on UNIX-like systems

          First, run the configure script.

% ./configure

          However, if you've installed APEL and FLIM in non-standard directories
          (ie. somewhere not on the default load-path), you must specify them using
          the --with-addpath option as follows:

% ./configure --with-addpath=/your/path/to//apel:/your/path/to/flim

          Next, execute the following commands to install emacs-w3m to an
          appropriate directory.

% make
# make install

  Installing on non-UNIX-like systems

          If you cannot execute the configure script on your system, or if no make
          command is available, execute the following command:

# emacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l w3mhack.el NONE -f w3mhack-nonunix-install

          However, if APEL, FLIM (or any other library) are installed in
          non-standard directories (ie. somewhere not on the default load-path), the
          installer won't find them. In such a case, it is necessary to tell the
          installer where they are, as shown below:

# emacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l w3mhack.el //c/your/path/to/apel://c/your/path/to/flim
-f w3mhack-nonunix-install
     ____________________________________________________________________________

Configuration

   Emacs-w3m has many configuration options, but the minimum that is required is
   just to put this line into your ~/.emacs file:

(require 'w3m-load)

   Just type M-x w3m, and you can use emacs-w3m.

   In order to handle text/html part with emacs-w3m under SEMI MUAs such as
   Wanderlust, put the following line in your ~/.emacs file:

(require 'mime-w3m)

   For more details, see [54]Info manual, or browse the emacs-w3m customization
   group within Emacs.
     ____________________________________________________________________________
