Certainly. I usually type in the function by name because I did not learn how they are mapped to the keys.

With respect to option -m, the term Usenet message is now used in the manpage. I wonder whether other types of content than text/plain are often met at all. I just work with mails and know that text/html raises security issues for the "simple user" and is far from being essential. > Meanwhile, w3m claims to have gopher support compiled in, but (bug > 742455) it doesn't work. Still, at least now I know from that report > that "w3m gopher://uninformativ.de/1" *ought* to work. I'm astonished that somebody asked for this protocol this year. From your remarks I concluded that it is outdated. My own needs are satisfied with http(s), pop and smtp, and, certainly, the one used for voice over IP services.
