+\fIw3m\fP is a text based browser which can display local or remote
+web pages as well as other documents. It is able to process HTML
+tables and frames but it ignores JavaScript and Cascading Style
+Sheets. \fIw3m\fP can also serve as a pager for text files named as
+arguments or passed on standard input, and as a general purpose
+directory browser.
+
+\fIw3m\fP organizes its content in buffers or tabs, allowing easy
+navigation between them. With the w3m-img extension installed, \fIw3m\fP can
+display inline graphics in web pages. And whenever \fIw3m\fP's HTML
+rendering capabilities do not meet your needs, the target URL can be
+handed over to a graphical browser with a single command.
+
+For help with runtime options, press \(lqH\(rq while running \fIw3m\fP.
+
+.SH ARGUMENTS
+
+When given one or more command line arguments, \fIw3m\fP will handle
+targets according to content type. For web, \fIw3m\fP gets this
+information from HTTP headers; for relative or absolute file system
+paths, it relies on filenames.
+
+With no argument, \fIw3m\fP expects data from standard input and
+assumes \(lqtext/plain\(rq unless another MIME type is given by the user.
+
+If provided with no target and no fallback target (see for instance
+option \fB\-v\fP below), \fIw3m\fP will exit with usage information.
.SH OPTIONS
