 by drawing them directly into the terminal. To enable this feature, set the

-This does not work over ssh, requires certain terminals (tested on "xterm" and
-"urxvt") and is incompatible with tmux, although it works with screen.

-When using a terminal with a nonzero border which is not automatically detected, the w3m preview will be misaligned.
-Use the C<w3m_offset> option to manually adjust the image offset. This should be the same value as the terminal's border value.
