What terminal emulator are you using? Does this also happen in xterm?

Same on XTerm

he.wikipedia.org works for me. We need more information. Which version are you running? Does it also happen when you start w3m with '-config /dev/null'?

[QuickQuokka]

Version is w3m-0.5.3.git20220409_1-1

Same issue with /dev/null

This doesn't look like an official version tag, where is this coming from?

Sorry I'm an idiot this is not a w3m specific issue
