Thanks, but is it possible for this function to also work for real
"visible" links e.g

"follow this link : http://www.bbc.co.com" ?

This is the ideal thing - then I have one "browse with firefox" key for
both link types. I assume the code would first check if its a visible
link and if not then assume a hidden link processable with
w3m-safe-view-this-url.

Also, whats the "vv" key? If I hit v, it invokes the usual w3m-bookmark
with the first v.

Thanks for your feedback.
