7.1 General Questions

• Q. What’s emacs-w3m?

  It is an interface program on Emacs which controls w3m. For more information, see Preliminary remarks.

• Q. Which emacs versions are supported?

  The following Emacsen have been checked for emacs-w3m support:

  • Emacs 21
  • Emacs 22
  • XEmacs 21.4.17 and later with/without Mule
  • XEmacs 21.5-b19 and later with/without Mule
  • Meadow

  Note that you’re required to use APEL if you’d like to run emacs-w3m under XEmacs. For more information, see Things required to run emacs-w3m.

• Q. Which w3m versions are supported?

  The following w3m versions have been checked for emacs-w3m support:

  • w3m-0.3 and later
  • w3mmee-p24-18 + moe-1.5.4

    Note that w3mmee mentioned as the example is configured with the ‘lang=many’ option (it can be done by entering 3, when the ‘configure’ script prompts you, "Which language do you prefer?"). It also requires the ‘libmoe’ package.

• Q. I’ve already installed APEL in the XEmacs SUMO package, is it ok?

  There are some problems in the XEmacs APEL package (all modules have been compiled for XEmacs with Mule); for instance, the ‘std11’ modules conflict with the FLIM’s one, etc. Even though you can use ‘apel-1.23-pkg.tar.gz’ or later for both XEmacs with Mule and non-Mule XEmacs if you don’t use FLIM for the ‘shimbun’ features, we recommend you replace it or newly install the original APEL package. See Things required to run emacs-w3m where to get it from.

• Q. I’ve gotten the developing version of emacs-w3m with CVS, however I’m missing ‘configure’ script.

  It is necessary to run ‘autoconf’ first, to generate ‘configure’ script.
