If you try  http://www.gnu.org/software/texmacs-doc/images/ you'll have 
a better understanding of what happens: Forbidden. the same with 
texmacs-doc. So you cannot access to the file.

Another point I don't like too much is that apparently texmacs wrote 
some files in my home directory not even hidden but set to 0k: CWD, 
PORT, PWD, RETR, SYST, TYPE. Maybe following the crash or the attempt 
to update the documentation from the online help.

In the file, there is a such a link:

 <expand|big-figure|<apply|screenshot|start.png>|Window which appears 
when
  starting TeXmacs up.>

The problem is that the URL given as reference is whichever you give as 
CDPATH in your home directory + the URL where the file 
tut-startup.en.tm + the URL to the image.

So it resolves as what you see.

On my computer, I let Fink do the job. That means I have not define by 
myself a path for texmacs. So it resolves as what I told you.

Anyway, the result is the same. No file to display.

Oh, that was not bad words, far from me and well when I write in 
English, it's a pity I never find the right words, lack of practise, 
very very sorry :-). I'm just so new to this stuff and so unskilled, 
it's as an evidence for me that the others know what I don't know.
