Welcome
Get w3m

 Download the latest and greatest w3m source. The lastest released version is w3m-0.1.10-tb2.tar.gz. The difference between this and the author's is that I've applied this display.c.patch. As well as Ambrose Li's cookie.patch.

 The latest developers version is: w3m-0.1.11-pre-tb6.tar.gz The diffence between this and the author's version is that I've included both the display.c.patch and this menu-search patch from Jan Nieuwenhuizen. Also I've applied Ambrose Li's cookie.patch. [Sidenote: I almost destroyed my own cvs from this patch, doh! Thank god for backups.] Also added was a better *bsd patch. Hopefully it works better. I'm still hacking on a configure.in script. autoconf is whack.

There are a limited number of binaries (including windows binaries) in the binary directory. Please note that windows is supported via the cygwin libraries.

ScreenShots! Sorry you have to have a graphically enabled browser to actually see the pictures... :)

 w3m is a great text-only webbrowser. Written by Akinori Ito of Yamagata University, w3m started as a pager. Currently it supports a robust set of features including:

  • frame and table rendering
  • japanese language support
  • read from standard input (lynx cannot do this very easily)
  • locally run cgi scripts to test html output (requires *no* webserver)
  • small in memory footprint (and coincidentally quite fast)
  • keystroke compatible with lynx (but you can also customize the keybindings yourself)
  • colour :)
  • SSL support thru the openssl library
  • cookie support

 These are just a short list of reasons that w3m is better than other text browsers like lynx or links.
