Hello, I am recently growing fed up with strongly graphical applications causing my (admittedly quite old) computer to slow down to a crawl. I like the concept of Ratpoison and am thinking of switching to it, but could use a few tips for making the big change.
I am especially looking for a browser to substitute Firefox (it's great, but quite a memory hog). I like links, what with its graphical capabilities, but it lacks tabs and that's a major downside in my vision. I've tried Conkeror for Firefox, but it's too Emacs-centric (vim person here) and also disables tabs (or maybe it's me -- I couldn't get them to work). Any other tips or nifty programs you could link me to would be greatly appreciated, especially Ratpoison-related; For instance, C-t is too RSI-prone for my taste and conflicts with Firefox's new tab button (I want to switch, but I realise fx could prove irreplaceable, mainly due to the large userbase). Thanks in advance, Vlad -- How's my English? How about my Netiquette? Do mail me if something is wrong with my behaviour. Thank you.
