Control your browser with your keyboard only.
Replace Firefox's control mechanism with one modelled on VIM. Most common tasks you want your browser to perform are bind to a single key press:
You want to open a new tab? Hit t
.
You want to follow that link? Hit f
and type the displayed label.
You want to go to the bottom of the page? Hit G
. Or the top? gg
.
You want to focus the text field on Wikipedia to search for another term? gi
.
Switch to the next tab? gt
.
Go back in time? H
.
Notice that this tab is rubbish and you want to close it? d
.
Regret that decision? u
restores it.
Temporarily disable all that magic because you can't stand it? I
.
But how do you use your browser now? Shift-Esc
and we're back on.
The list could go on a bit here, but I guess you'll get the point. If you feel
lost sometimes :help
might help you a lot.
Highlighted features:
- follow any link on the site with just 2-3 key presses.
- switch to any open tab by searching for its URL or title or entering its ID.
- easy customizable search settings
- bind any supported command or commands to the key (sequence) of your liking
- great default bindings (if you're used to Pentadactyl or Vimperator)
This add-on is very usable, but is in an early stage of development. We intend to implement the majority of Vimperator's features.
We recommend that you use the beta versions below.
