Yes, well aware of the extensions issue. Since I had no solution, I started looking at it as a blessing in disguise ;-) It makes me use less extensions, only adblock and https-everywhere right now on Conkeror. But then I have a lot of stuff in javascript! > In particular, the connector with Zotero standalone just cannot > work with it.

Glad keysnail is working, I may have to look at it as a backup option. I could never get into zotero, when I tried last.

You probably know this, but .... you can write a function and assign a key for this to make life a bit easier. // **** open in Firefox **** function open_in_firefox (url, window) { var cmd_str = 'open -a firefox '+url; if (window != null) { window.minibuffer.message('Issuing ' + cmd_str); } shell_command_blind(cmd_str); } interactive("firefox", "Send url to Firefox", function (I) { open_in_firefox(I.buffer.display_uri_string, I.window); }); define_key(content_buffer_normal_keymap, "f5", "firefox"); >> I have tried out Vimium with Chrome, and liked it.
