To upgrade Emacs-w3m, there is more than one way, such as: * Official CVS repository http://emacs-w3m.namazu.org/index-en.html#download * MELPA (Milkypostman's Emacs Lisp Package Archive) http://melpa.milkbox.net/ * Ubuntu https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/w3m-el-snapshot https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/saucy/+source/w3m-el-snapshot * Debian http://packages.qa.debian.org/w/w3m-el-snapshot.html http://packages.debian.org/source/unstable/w3m-el-snapshot BTW, there isn't an official Ubuntu emacs24 package in Ubuntu 12.04.

I think the best would be to install it again from the source by yourself. If you don't like to do that, the second best would be to compile some modules again one by one manually. To do that: Load w3m-proc.el (not w3m-proc.elc): M-x load-library RET w3m-proc.el RET Byte-compile some modules: M-x byte-compile-file RET /PATH/w3m-proc.el RET M-x byte-compile-file RET /PATH/w3m-ems.el RET M-x byte-compile-file RET /PATH/w3m-image.el RET M-x byte-compile-file RET /PATH/w3m-favicon.el RET M-x byte-compile-file RET /PATH/w3m-antenna.el RET M-x byte-compile-file RET /PATH/w3m.el RET Load those recompiled modules: M-x load-library RET w3m-proc RET M-x load-library RET w3m-ems RET M-x load-library RET w3m-image RET M-x load-library RET w3m-favicon RET M-x load-library RET w3m-antenna RET M-x load-library RET w3m RET Where /PATH/ is the directory where emacs-w3m is installed.

It is of no importance, though. Indeed. The buffer: scheme is of emacs-w3m internal; Aota-san created it in response to a question I posted in August 2008. My question was how to follow a name anchor within an html mail, that contains a link &lt;a href="#a"&gt;...&lt;/a&gt; and an anchor &lt;a name="a"&gt;...&lt;/a&gt;. There was no way to express the place of such an anchor, that exists in an Emacs buffer, until then. I haven't been taking part in the development of that feature, so I don't know how it is now. But I believe the door is open for further improvements. (Isn't it you? ;-) I usually use `M-x w3m-buffer' to preview the html source that I'm editing. Undo makes it revert to the source. </pre> Katsumi Yamaoka 2013-05-21T09:20:40 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.w3m/8900 <pre>With recent debian i386 emacs 24.3 and the current cvs w3m, if you have a file foo.html in your home directory then M-x find-file ~/foo.html # into buffer foo.html M-x w3m-browse-url buffer://foo.html gets Cannot retrieve URL: file://~/foo.html default-directory starts with a "~" when under the home directory which it seems is no good for file://. An expand-file-name per below does the trick. But then I wondered if perhaps (buffer-file-name (get-buffer ...)) would help if the buffer name isn't the filename, eg. foo.html&lt;2&gt;. Is buffer:// a documented feature? I suppose it could do something like w3m-region to take the buffer content instead of the file content in case you haven't saved, or for a non-file buffer. But perhaps it's not that sophisticated yet. I struck this when tinkering with a way to have w3m preview html while editing, and perhaps rendering buffers like a tar file member if browsing source archive etc. I made a copy to a temp file, but that loses the curren</pre> Kevin Ryde 2013-05-20T00:07:35 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.w3m/8899 <pre>Now it is working again for me at http://zh.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E4%B8%AD%E8%8F%AF%E6%B0%91%E5%9C%8B%E5%9C%8B%E6%B0%91%E8%BA%AB%E5%88%86%E8%AD%89&amp;diff=26402835&amp;oldid=26355641 So there must be some other factor involved.

Only this is what emacs-w3m does to control the display width of web contents. That is, how the contents are displayed is mainly due to what w3m does. The width, that w3m is told, is determined by emacs-w3m according to the value of `w3m-fill-column'. If it is -1, the default, the width will be the window width of Emacs currently running. The cause of your (and all our) problem is that w3m doesn't obey the specified width as the case may be. I suspect there is a simple bug that w3m forgets to count the left margin when filling table lines. We probably have nothing to do for it. A workaround: (setq w3m-fill-column 64) Where the number is pretty small than the actual window width. </pre> Katsumi Yamaoka 2013-04-19T06:53:34 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.w3m/8885 <pre>KY&gt; Just for that purpose, emacs-w3m offers "&lt;", "&gt;", ",", "." KY&gt; (lynx-like keymap, the default). Those aren't necessarily very KY&gt; convenient, though. OK. Say, maybe it is all a rendering mistake... No matter how wide the terminal is, emacs-w3m always renders http://kml4earth.appspot.com/kmlBestPractice.html about 17 characters too wide. It seems it makes the left column (17 characters wide), and then forgets to remember its width when outputting the page! </pre> jidanni< at >jidanni.org 2013-04-19T04:09:57 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.w3m/8884 <pre> Just for that purpose, emacs-w3m offers "&lt;", "&gt;", ",", "."
