Re: emacs-w3m question

[Jon Fineman]

When I run this with emacs -q I get redirected. When I launch this
with my regular emacs I don't get redirected.

I just tried launching emacs -q and running the following:
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/";))
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/";))
(package-initialize)

(require 'w3m-load)
(setq mm-text-html-renderer 'w3m)

And still got the odd return. Then I unset any environment variables
that had my UTF settings. Also I renamed my ~/.w3m config directory as
there is some overlap in the usage.

What else might influence this?

A sample of what was returned. I removed the unprintable characters.
