- addons.mozilla.org is now supported so long as you run `fixamo` first.
- Tridactyl now supports changing the Firefox GUI if you have the native messenger installed via `guiset`. There's quite a few options available, but `guiset gui none` is probably what you want, perhaps followed up with `guiset tabs always`. See `:help guiset` for a list of all possible options.
## Frequently asked questions
- Why doesn't Tridactyl respect my search engine settings?
It used to be a webextension limitation but it's not anymore. There are plans to fix this, see [#792](https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/792).

- Can I import/export settings, and does Tridactyl use an external configuration file just like Vimperator?
Yes, if you have `native` working, `$XDG_CONFIG_DIR/tridactyl/tridactylrc` or `~/.tridactylrc` will be read at startup via an `autocmd` and `source`. There is an [example file available on our repository](https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/master/.tridactylrc).
Yes. `:source --url [URL]` accepts a URL (which must contain only an RC file, e.g. `raw.githubusercontent.com/...`). If you have `native` working, `$XDG_CONFIG_DIR/tridactyl/tridactylrc` or `~/.tridactylrc` will be read at startup via an `autocmd` and `source`. There is an [example file available on our repository](https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/master/.tridactylrc).
There's also `mkt` which exports your configuration to a file which may be read with `source`. (NB: this currently requires `native`).

If you want to bind <C-^> you'll find that you'll probably need to press Control+Shift+6 to trigger it. The default bind is <C-6> which does not require you to press shift.
You can also create site specific binds with `bindurl [url] ...`
- When I type 'f', can I type link names (like Vimperator) in order to narrow down the number of highlighted links?
You can, thanks to @saulrh. First `set hintfiltermode vimperator` and then `set hintchars 1234567890`.
