How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. org-mode), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
w3mexecutable, then there is a complimentary Lisp library that can help you view an html file like a web-browser (within Emacs) -- although, not as fancy as Firefox and so forth. Another library (which I believe is all Lisp and does not require an executable) is calledshr-- I've only used it once and am by no means an expert. Although I love to do everything in Emacs, if you are doing any sort of web development, then you will want to do astart-processor the equivalent thereof and use the real browser that your target audience will be using.post-command-hook), there will undoubtedly be a significant trade-off in terms of performance in Emacs because the working buffer will need to be rendered every command loop and updated in the target buffer. The slow-down in performance is probably a deal-breaker, but maybe you'll have good luck ... Perhaps after every save would be a better way to do it ... [Personally, I rsync a draft to the shared server and view the live draft version in an external web browser.]
