Comments and Reviews
Special use, keyboard vs mouse navigated browser. It can be extra helpful in creating automated scripts without a recorded macro or mouse clicker. Not well-adapted to general use.. no upper right corner square for window resizing and doesn't install browser add-ons. To use the Vim-keys, navigate to a website. Type “f” you will get the Vim keys appear. If you type what's in them it will take you where you want to go. F1 for cheatsheet No prior page buttons etc.. navigating can be a challenge.
Only just discovered this but already excited about it.
