master 2a8d083607 1/4: Drop support for the dead third-party w3 package


From: Stefan Kangas
Subject: master 2a8d083607 1/4: Drop support for the dead third-party w3 package
Date: Sat, 9 Jul 2022 12:18:18 -0400 (EDT)

branch: master
commit 2a8d083607e7e0fe9358f1f6526dbd8aa928af61
Author: Stefan Kangas <stefan@marxist.se>
Commit: Stefan Kangas <stefan@marxist.se>

    Drop support for the dead third-party w3 package
    
    The w3 package was removed from GNU ELPA in 2020 as it doesn't run on
    a recent Emacs, and development had stopped over a decade before that.
    If anyone wants to revive the w3 package, they should look this all
    over, but it doesn't make sense for us to maintain this support code.
    Ref: https://debbugs.gnu.org/25395
    
    * lisp/net/browse-url.el (browse-url-w3): Make obsolete.
    (browse-url--browser-defcustom-type)
    (browse-url-default-browser):
    * lisp/ffap.el (ffap-url-at-point, ffap-file-at-point):
    * lisp/net/newst-plainview.el (newsticker--buffer-do-insert-text):
    * lisp/net/newst-reader.el (newsticker-html-renderer)
    (newsticker-show-news):
    * lisp/net/newst-treeview.el (newsticker--treeview-render-text):
    * lisp/org/ol.el (org-store-link):
    * lisp/url/url.el (url-retrieve): Remove w3 support code and related
    documentation and comments.  (Bug#56435)
    
    * test/lisp/net/browse-url-tests.el
    (browse-url-tests-browser-kind): Adjust test for above changes.
    
    * etc/TODO: Remove TODO to install W3.
    * doc/misc/org.org (Handling Links): Don't mention W3.
    * lisp/msb.el (msb--few-menus, msb--very-many-menus): Check for
    eww-mode instead of w3-mode.
