I'm generally using screen when connected remotely, and for some reason I (and a friend of mine) have formatting problems when using w3m in screen windows. I'm not sure if that's a result of the version of w3m or screen that I'm using on my home system, but right now it's just not working. It doesn't phase me too much, since I ssh -X anyway... > i must admit i haven't used lynx in about 1-2 year(s) since switching to > w3m. I stopped using lynx until they started patching up their security holes again... now I'll use it when on remote systems or work systems (which don't often have w3m installed... yet). -- gwen.
