w3m-type-ahead.el (available at https://alioth.debian.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=30594) can be used to add type-ahead functionality (as seen, for example, in Mozilla and related browsers) to w3m-mode
. After loading w3m and w3m-type-ahead, it can be switched on as a minor mode in w3m-mode
buffers using:
(add-hook 'w3m-mode-hook 'w3m-type-ahead-mode)
By default, this binds / to w3m-type-ahead
and M-/ to w3m-type-ahead-regexp
. With these, incremental searching limited to the text associated with links can be done. Use a prefix argument of C-u 2
or C-u C-u
to create a new session.
