That was a long time ago.  But basically it exports NuttX so that it can be 
built outside of the NuttX build system.  The build logic in in w3mbuild/; w3m 
is just a w3m snapshot.  The readme files don't have much in them, but the 
w3mbuild/Makefile should make things clear.

Not really so simple to use.

Hi Peter,

In 2019 Mr Greg did some test with this idea:

https://bitbucket.org/patacongo/w3m/src/master/
https://bitbucket.org/patacongo/w3mbuild/src/master/

But I have no idea how it works and why it is not used to bring more projects 
from Linux/Unix to NuttX.

I'm CC Greg here, but not sure if he remembers details about it and/or its 
limitations.

BTW, I think your better changes are looking at the commits and the source code 
to figure-out it yourself.

BR,

Alan

Thanks in advance!
