Well, it's not always the case : I've tested on a webmail site
(webmail.insa-lyon.fr, an IMP server if I remember well), and w3m
printed something like "--FRAME--" with a kind of frame menu below.
On the other hand, links came over this and asked directly for
user/passwd. Lynx first asked for cookie stuff (since I didn't check
any default before), went on the main frame I guess, but didn't render
"sub-content".
With w3m, when you choose a frame to jump into, how would you reach
the others without having to fake a "go back" with key B ? It's where
I'm looking for a kind of "frame ring".
I've noticed too that w3m provides prompts/editor to fill forms
whereas lynx/links simply write into them if your cursor is OK.
Globally, w3m's cursor is free, not lynx'/links' one as it jumps from
object to object.

Sure. I use to play with w3m-el, but I'll try the others (surfraw
package description is very funny :-)).
