A recent posting about this issue landed no responses; I'll try once more before concluding that I'm the only person in the world who is attempting this configuration. The excellent WWW OS/2 home page at MIT at: http://www.mit.edu:8001/activities/os2/os2world.html mentions that there is a "w3" extension for Emacs that will allow users to browse the WWW. I dutifully followed instructions and tried to start w3 from an OS/2 emacs session, only to receive the following error message: Symbol's function definition is void: open-network-stream I am not an experienced emacs user and I have no idea what this means. Can anyone explain how to overcome it? FWIW, I installed the fulls emacs suite in ftp-os2.cdrom.com /pub/os2/2_x/unix/emacs22, plus w3 and the "extras" package mentioned if one traces the Emacs line of the aforementioned MIT OS/2 WWW home page.
