w3m is a lightweight text-mode pager that doubles as a WWW browser.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
w3m is a pager/text-based WWW browser. It is a similar application to
|
It's main features (over lynx) are:
|
||||||
Lynx, but it has several features Lynx doesn't have.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
w3m can render table.
|
* HTML tables
|
||||||
w3m can render frame. (it converts the frames into a table)
|
* HTML frames
|
||||||
w3m can display documents given from standard input easily.
|
* HTML from stdin
|
||||||
w3m is small. Binary size of w3m on Sparc workstation is under
|
* HTTPS
|
||||||
300KByte.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
-d.
|
While it may not be as strictly accurate as lynx, w3m seems to render
|
||||||
|
HTML pages more intelligently and more compactly.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The following notes come from the README:
|

------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
w3m is a pager with WWW capability. It IS a pager, but it can be
|
||||||
|
used as a text-mode WWW browser.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The features of w3m are as follows:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* When reading HTML document, you can follow links and view images
|
||||||
|
(using external image viewer).
|
||||||
|
* It has 'internet message mode', which determines the type of document
|
||||||
|
from header. If the Content-Type: field of the document is text/html,
|
||||||
|
that document is displayed as HTML document.
|
||||||
|
* You can change URL description like 'http://hogege.net' in plain text
|
||||||
|
into link to that URL.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Current (beta-990323) problems are:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Resize behaviour is imcomplete.
|
||||||
|
* It can't show images inline. (It seems to be impossible as far as using
|
||||||
|
xterm)
|
||||||
|
* It doesn't decode MIME-body of the document.
|
||||||
|
* Online manuals are poor.
