A-vim-like-firefox-like-configuration-for-w3m

Some points about this configuration

  • This is a configuration for w3m that aims to be compatible with shortcuts of vim-like browsers, complements (e.g. dwb, VimFx) and firefox/chrome.

  • Vim-like shortcuts are preferable to firefox shortcut, So in a case that I can only implement one I will choose vim-like

  • Many features of w3m AFAIK are not incorporated in any of these browsers, so the complete compatibility is not posible (e.g. BACK = delete current buffer and go back in history)

  • This configuration is work in progresss

  • Some shortcuts

    • Arrow keys = Move cursor
