This led me to do a better Google search so now I've reconfigured emacs
and eww is working. Yay! Now I have math and code-related tools to try
out. (Anyone use the math navigator?)
I still don't have w3m working and I did not see any useful output in
the messages buffer.
The emacs manual is generally easy to understand but I'm having the
opposite experience with gnus. I don't understand much of the
terminology, I don't yet know elisp and ATM I'm just trying to figure
out how to set up gmail.
