I'd like to browse URLs I'm sent via email with W3M. I can do this by
positioning the cursor on the url and doing 'M-x w3m'. Should I be able
to simply position the cursor and press return to load W3M with the URL?
If so, what do I need to configure?
In my .emacs I have:
(require 'w3m-load)

Something like:
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'w3m-browse-url)
will help.

Thanks. I've tried that although it still doesn't seem to work. I get
the error:
Searching for program: No such file of directory, open
I definitely have W£3Mand emacs-w3m installed.

Oh, are you using MS Windows?
Because I see a line (w32-shell-exectue "open" url) in
browse-url-default-windows-browser.
Not sure how to help you with that one, but if you are using MS Windows, it
looks like you need to convince it not to use the
browse-url-default-windows-browser function to open the URL.
If you are not using MS Windows, what does the Backtrace say if you do M-x
toggle-debug-on-error and then try to browse the URL?

OK, I've fixed it now. For some reason, I had the following in my .gnus.el
(setq gnus-button-url 'browse-url-generic
browse-url-generic-program "open")
I just removed this and now emacs-w3m is working fine.
Thanks for your help
Matt
