Do you know where to find English instructions for compiling w3m?


Well, the README file in the source distribution says:

        If you can read English, see doc/*.

And sure enough, the doc/README file has a section on Installation that refers
Windows users to the doc/README.cygwin file (attached).

***How to compile w3m on Windows***

To compile w3m on MS-Windows, you have to use Cygwin32 with development
tools. You can get it from http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/ .

After installing Cygwin32, what you have to do first is

  TERM=ansi; export TERM
  sh configure

and

  make
