w3m visits the file `pwd`/bla.txt . That's a good feature as a user knows where the current directory is (in other words a user knows the file bla.txt exists in the current directory). But does a Chrome/Firefox/Safari/emacs-w3m user know where one is? In emacs-w3m the current directory (i.e., `default-directory') defaults to ~/.w3m for years, but there may be no file of interest. Well, for instance, probably we can modify emacs-w3m so to allow "file:bla.txt" things if and only if a user has specified `w3m-default-directory' (defaults to nil). Otherwise how about using `w3m-find-file' instead? > But emacs-w3m says > w3m--goto-url--valid-url: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil Ending up with an error is bad in that situatuion anyway. I think we should improve it so to issue something other than an error. Thanks.
