[SOLVED] [Request] vise browser

Anybody interested in whipping up a package for the vise browser?

“A keyboard driven browser with tabs in a tree”

The author is kovidgoyal, who you may know a the author of the kitty terminal, and lead developer of the calibre ebook management and conversion suite, both of which are in Arch's community repo.

I'm more curious than anything else.

The build instructions are quite simple (though a little odd).  Just put together a PKGBUILD and give it a shot.  Post any errors or questions you run into.

Now you may want to check out qutebrowser which has very similar goals, but it well developed.

I might give it a try when I get a chance, though that may be awhile since I'm pretty busy.

I've already tried qutebrowser and most of the others; as I said I was just curious.

All right, went ahead and did it myself. I'm still a bit shakey with this kind of thing, but I think it worked OK.

Cute little browser, but I'll have to play around with it some more to see if I like it.
