Vimperator for opera

Opera can now behave like vim too.

There shouldn't be any reason to learn more editor types than emacs or vi -- mg (1)

Yup, just discovered that link too. Now I'm even more confused about which browser to stick with....

Re: Vimperator for opera

Gotta be honest, Firefox's Vimperator is still the most complete one. But it's good they've started developing it for other browsers too.

*chuckles*
I still use nano for all my commandline text editing. I just never got the hang of Vi(m) or emacs.

Re: Vimperator for opera

Been using this for a couple weeks myself.  You can also enable tab-completion for the address bar by tweaking the vimperopera shortcuts a bit further. I can't recall the specifics, but just open the vimperopera bindings in the preferences window and search for "tab".  Change the address bar widget thingy to "next line".

Re: Vimperator for opera

This is great. I've been thinking about creating something like this for a few weeks. I guess it makes sense that someone has aready done it. It so freaking annoying to be working in vim and then switch to Opera and use completely different keys.
