      6 1. Introduction
      7 
      8      w3m is a pager with WWW capability. It IS a pager, but it can be
      9 used as a text-mode WWW browser.
     10 
     11      The features of w3m are as follows:
     12 
     13 * When reading HTML document, you can follow links and view images
     14   (using external image viewer).
     15 * It has 'internet message mode', which determines the type of document
     16   from header. If the Content-Type: field of the document is text/html,
     17   that document is displayed as HTML document.
     18 * You can change URL description like 'http://hogege.net' in plain text
     19   into link to that URL.
     20 
     21 Current problems are:
     22 
     23 * Online manuals are poor.
     24 
     25 w3m is known to work on these platforms.

     42 2. Installation
     43 
     44 Follow these instructions to install w3m.  
     45 
     46  - You need latest version of GC library (at least 6.1?).
     47    You can get GC library from 
     48    http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Hans_Boehm/gc/gc_source/
     49 
     50    Note: if you're using GC library 6.1, you should install gc.h 
     51    to PREFIX/include:
     52 	# cp gc-6.1/include/gc.h PREFIX/include
     53 
     54  - Run configure.
     55    % ./configure
     56 
     57  - do make
     58    % make
     59 
     60  - do make install
     61    # make install
     62 
     63 MACHINE/OS specific notices:
     64 
     65 HP-UX
     66 	If you want to use HP C compiler, answer
     67 
     68 		Input your favorite C-compiler.
     69 		(Default: cc) cc -Aa -D_HPUX_SOURCE
     70 
     71 	If you use just 'cc' without options, you can't compile w3m.
     72 	If you are using gcc, no option is needed. 
     73 
     74 OS/2
     75 	You can compile w3m using emx. First you have to do
     76 	is to compile GC library with
     77 
     78 		cd gc
     79 		make -f EMX_MAKEFILE
     80 
     81 	then compile w3m. I heard that OS/2 console can't 
     82 	display color, you had better compile w3m without
     83 	color capability.
     84 
     85 Windows
     86 	To compile w3m on MS-Windows, you have to use Cygwin with
     87 	development tools.
     88 	Read README.cygwin for more details.
