I think it's fair to say that this is a highly obsolete file type. A long time ago a wrote a web browser 'viewer' called w3launch which was used to launch locally installed software packages from an Intranet web site.

The .w3l file hosted on a web server contained the _name_ of the package (not a command line) and the local PC administrator maintained a database linking names to command lines.

The w3launch viewer looked up the command line in the local database and executed it. The software was created for 16 bit windows and is pretty much unnecessary in this world of Java applets, Flash etc. but may be found in one or two libraries around the world.
