Hi,
1,2: Glad you like conkeror. Our development on the Windows platform is
lagging a bit, as I don't have a machine available for Windows development
and testing. :-\
3: yes. When you make a profile with 'conkeror -ProfileManager' you can
set the profile directory. I'm not sure it's wise to share profiles
across different machines though. There could be all kinds of problems
with that.
To get the M-x venkman command, put the following in your rc (or eval it with
M-:)
require("venkman");
