Introduction to w3m

w3m is primarily a pager but it can also be used as a text-mode WWW browser.

Installation of w3m

We configure w3m to use the "monster" model, which includes color, menu, mouse, cookie, and SSL support. Other models include:

baby   - bare minimum
little - color and menu support
mouse  - color, menu, and mouse support
cookie - color, menu, mouse, and cookie support

Install w3m by running the following commands:

./configure -yes -lang=en -model=monster -prefix=/usr &&
make &&
make install

Command explanations

./configure -yes: Set all parameters to their default values.

-lang=en: Set the default language to English.

-model=monster: This sets the build model to monster. Alternative build models are discussed above.
