I did not understand this. Do you get this error when you hit Return
after selecting an image-file in ranger?

> Has anyone else gotten preview to work on a Mac?
In case noone has got image preview to work on a Mac, the linked page
would probably be useful. At any rate, do some sanity checks:

1) Is w3mimgdisplay installed properly? Does the following command
work? The `ext_image_viewer = off' option forces w3m to use
w3mimgdisplay.
w3m -o 'ext_image_viewer=off' /path/to/image.jpg 

2) Open a terminal and type '/opt/local/libex/w3m/w3mimgdisplay'
(without the quotes), and then press Return. What happens? Does
w3mimgdisplay exit immediately? 

(Try the above steps with all your terminals, but specially with
xterm!)
