Vimperator

Note: ganditi-va bine inainte sa il instalati :))

Vimperator is a Firefox browser extension with strong inspiration from the Vim text editor, with a mind towards faster and more efficient browsing. It has similar key bindings and you could call it a modal web browser, as key bindings differ according to which mode you are in. For example, it has a special Hint mode, where you can follow links easily with the keyboard only. Also most functionality is available as commands, typing : back will go back within the current page history, just like hitting the back button in the toolbar.

Features

* Vim-like key bindings (h, j, k, l, gg, G, 0, $, ZZ, <C-f>, etc.)

* Ex commands (:quit, : open foo.com, ...) with a proper command line

* Tab completion available for all commands, showing suggestions while you type

* Hint mode (start with f to follow a link)

* Extensions! Yes, you can extend Vimperator's functionality with scripts just like you can extend Firefox with extensions

* Explore JavaScript objects with :echo window and even context-sensitive tab completion

* Easily customizable GUI (easily hide all GUI elements with :set gui=)

* Ability to :source JavaScript files, and to use a ~/.vimperatorrc file with syntax highlighting if you install vimperator.vim

* Easy quick searches (: open foo will search for "foo" in google, : open ebay terminator will search for "terminator" on eBay) with support for Firefox keyword bookmarks and search engines

* Count supported for many commands (3<C-o> will go back 3 pages)

* Beep on errors

* Marks support (ma to set mark 'a' on a webpage, 'a to go there).

* QuickMarks support (quickly go to previously marked web pages with go{a-zA-Z0-9}).

* :map and :command support (and feedkeys() for script writers).

* :time support for profiling

* Move the text cursor and select text with Vim keys and a visual mode

* External editor support

* Macros to replay key strokes

* AutoCommands to execute action on certain events

* A comprehensive :help system, explaining all commands, mappings and options

* Much more...
