Perhaps this could be fixed. We do need a starting point somewhere and
it was not presented on the referring page. "<projectname>/<directory>"
is -not- intuitive as a starting point if the base URL gives a 404
error.

As someone else pointed out it reports an error when trying to add it
using Yast2. I don't normally continue when I am presented with an error
I abort. Perhaps a YOU update to the 10.0 package management system to
include a "YUM" choice would be better I don't know. As far as the "w3m"
command I have never seen it referenced before. You must remember that
most people using 10.1 don't know how of these commands.
