[PATCH] w3m-input-url



The attached patch corrects a nuisance I've had with the package since
I started using it. I hope it or an equivalent can be accepted.

The issue occurs when using command 'g', 'G', or 'U' to open a new url
or perform a search. When one enters something of the form xxx.xxx
without a protocol prefix xxxx://, the package interprets the input as
a search request.

My expectation was that inputing:

  https://google.com    go there, and it does
  google.com            go there, and it doesn't
  google                peform a google search on the word

The patch also interprets any input containing a space as a search
request, so the following will perform searches:

  what is google.com
   what.is.google.com
