I read the whole README and I still have no idea what this does. Something about bookmarking websites and searches in some sort of configurable menu?

This is basically a way to create menus and submenus for recurrent utilities. You can use a rofi or dmenu frontend. Once you bind it a key shortcut, rofi/dmenu will come up asking you what to do.
Right now I can directly access my favorite websites, open my favorite programs, do web search (and also switch web engine), all without touching the browser directly. The idea is to group a lot of things in a lightweight script, and have a keyboard-only interaction with no extra extensions or programs.
I agree that the README is a little poor right now, and screenshots/gifs would also help on this regard. I'll start working on it pretty soon.
Like all things Lisp: no one understands the what, how and especially why of it. This sounds extremely non-useful to me. Opening browser windows? For what? To do what, exactly? And stop this "hacking" and "highly hackable" baloney.
Which operating systems are supported? Don't see that in the Readme.
I plan to migrate this to a more flexible Roswell script in a near future.
NB: I read SICP cover to cover twenty years ago, did many private projects with DrScheme (Racket) and was influenced by it's paradigms early on. I do appreciate Lispy topics, but why front page of HN?
I know that Lisp is very popular here on HN (Paul Graham!), but my gut feeling tells me that many Lisp related posts with hardly any upvotes / comments get pushed to the front page of HN. I wish there was a HN filter to hide certain keywords. NB: I read SICP cover to cover twenty years ago, did many private projects with DrScheme (Racket) and was influenced by it's paradigms early on.

But I'm not sure where to start automating this. It would be great to have some examples.

You can hide individual posts, which I find useful for a lot of non-technical content that's less interesting to me. It's manual, but it gets them off the home page and you can see content from the 2nd/3rd pages of material that may be of more interest to you.

Hello, I'm the author. I just found out someone put this in HN again, I hope I can explain. This is basically a way to create menus and submenus for recurrent utilities.
