quite often I want to use w3m as a viewer of an already

The way I do that now is `M-x w3m-find-file' which
prompts me to the default-directory.

That's not bad, however, I think it could do better:

deliver the current buffer with this prompt, in order
to enable RET to view it.

May be I miss something.

If not, it wouldn't be a big thing to change
`w3m-find-file' appropriately, would try a proposal.

The name of the command looks inappropriate to use for *buffer*. There is already the command `w3m-region', that you can use for the current buffer as follows:

M-<
C-SPC or C-@
M->
M-x w3m-region RET


Thanks.

BTW: `mark-whole-buffer' --C-h-- followed by

M-x w3m-region RET

would still be faster here.


As many commands `FOO-region' have friends `FOO-buffer' (e.g,,
`ispell-region' and `ispell-buffer'), we may provide the command
`w3m-buffer'.  Does it meet your wish?

(defun w3m-buffer (&optional url charset)
  "Render the current buffer.
See `w3m-region' for the optional arguments."
  (interactive (list (w3m-expand-file-name-as-url (or (buffer-file-name)
						      default-directory))))
  (w3m-region (point-min) (point-max) url charset))

Regards,

That's perfect with

GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2006-09-11 on kiste

Thanks a lot!

Have a nice day
