EWW == Emacs Web Browser EWW is a light-weight Web browser built into Emacs starting with Emacs-24.4 . This module speech-enables EWW.
It implements additional interactive commands for navigating the DOM. It also provides a set of filters for interactively filtering the DOM by various attributes such as id, class and role. Finally, this module updates EWW’s built-in key-bindings with Emacspeak conveniences.
These commands use EWW’s HTML DOM to display different
filtered views of the Web page. With an interactive prefix
argument, these commands prompt for a list of filters.
Command emacspeak-eww-restore bound to
DEL can be used to restore the previous view.
eww-view-dom-having-attribute Display DOM
nodes having specified attribute. Valid attributes are
available via completion.
eww-view-dom-having-class Display DOM
nodes having specified class. Valid classes are available
via completion.
eww-view-dom-having-elements Display
specified elements from the Dom. Valid element names are
available via completion.
eww-view-dom-having-id Display DOM nodes
having specified ID. Valid id values are available via
completion.
eww-view-dom-having-role Display DOM
nodes having specified role. Valid roles are available
via completion.
eww-view-dom-not-having-attribute Filter
out DOM nodes having specified attribute. Valid attribute
values are available via completion.
eww-view-dom-not-having-class Filter out
DOM nodes having specified class. Valid class values are
available via completion.
eww-view-dom-not-having-elements Filter
out specified element DOM nodes. Valid element names are
available via completion.
eww-view-dom-not-having-id Dfilter out
Display DOM nodes having specified ID. Valid id values
are available via completion.
eww-view-dom-not-having-role Filter out
DOM nodes having specified role. Valid role values are
available via completion.
Contrast this with filtering described in the previous
section. There, we discussed commands that filter
the DOM to render specific types of elements. For HTML as
spoken on the Web, there is a separate use-case that is
helpful as a dual to filtering, namely, displaying a specific
portion of a page, typically the contents of a
div element. These elements often appear many
times on a page, and can be deeply nested, making it
difficult to focus on the relevant content on the page, e.g.
news sites. Commands emacspeak-eww-dive-into-div
help in such cases, C-d renders the
div containing point in a separate buffer As
with the filtering commands, l returns to the
buffer where these commands were executed. Long-term users of
Emacspeak who still remember Emacs-W3 will recognize this as
the focus command implemented by Emacspeak for
W3.
These key-bindings are available when point is on a link.
They enable context-specific actions for following links,
e.g., to play media streams, or to open various feed-types
such as ATOM, RSS, or
OPML.
shr-copy-url Copy URL under point to the
kill-ring.
emacspeak-eww-play-media-at-point Play
media URL under point using emacs-m-player.
Handles URL fragment as time-stamp where we resume; use
J in M-Player to jump to that offset.
emacspeak-eww-curl-play-media-at-point
Play media url under point by first downloading the URL
using CURL. This is useful for sites that do multiple
redirects before returning the actual media stream
URL.
emacspeak-feeds-opml-display Display link
under point as an OPML feed .
emacspeak-feeds-rss-display Display link
under point as an RSS feed.
emacspeak-feeds-atom-display Display link
under point as an ATOM feed.
emacspeak-mpv-play-url Play link under
point as a Youtube stream.
Summary Of Keyboard Commands:
Emacspeak EWW supports table navigation via keys
M-., M-LEFT and M-RIGHT, to
speak the current, previous and next table cell respectively.
The latter commands also move to the cell being spoken. You
can get a sense of the table’s size via M-, which
speaks the number of rows and cells in the table. This works
for plain tables, not nested tables; for nested tables, first
have then unnested using one of the XSLT transforms
like sort-tables.
emacspeak-eww-fillin-form-field When on
an input field, insert username/password information
accessed via auth-source.

Modules emacspeak-epub and emacspeak-bookshare provide
EBook front-ends to EPub-2 and Daisy EBooks. Both modules now
use EWW to render these EBooks. Module emacspeak-eww provides
a simple bookmarking facility — called eww-marks (to avoid
confusion with EWW’s Web Bookmarks). When reading an EBook,
you can use m to create an EWW-mark at that
position. These marks are automatically saved across Emacs
sessions. To open a previously created eww-mark, use command
emacspeak-eww-open-mark bound to C-x r
e. This command reads a eww-mark name with completion.
Use this command with an interactive prefix arg to delete a
previously created eww-mark.
Interactively add a mark with name title+‘name’ at current position. Also store it as an org link for later insertion into ‘notes’.‘m (fn NAME)
Open with Chrome. (fn URL)
Launch async EAF browser. (fn URL)
Clean up DOM and Source from eww-data. Use for large EBook buffers.
Use Curl to pull a URL, then pass the first line to MPlayer as a playlist. Useful in handling double-redirect from TuneIn.
Interactively delete a mark with name ‘name’ at current position. (fn NAME)
Focus on current div by rendering it in a new buffer.
Fill in user or passwd field using auth-source backend.
Display Link tags of type rel. Web pages for which alternate links are available are cued by an auditory icon on the header line.
Load saved marks.
A light-weight mode for the ‘*Emacspeak EWW Marks Browser*’. 1. Enables org integration via command ‘org-store-link’ bound to M-x org-store-link. 2. Stored links can be inserted into org files in the same directory via command ‘org-insert-link’ bound to M-x org-insert-link. In addition to any hooks its parent mode ‘special-mode’ might have run, this mode runs the hook ‘emacspeak-eww-marks-mode-hook’, as the final or penultimate step during initialization.
