To bad this browser is not on HomeBrew and you need among other dependencies Xcode, which in itself is already 11GB!!!
So much space needed for a "lightweight" browser

Thanks for responding! That wasn't my experience with using enter, but i just tried it and it works, so I'm pretty sure that was just me :) the command being relegated to buffers is useful to know. > - `tab` inserts the current selection in the input. Do you mean something else? In emacs (specifically ivy/helm), tab in context-sensitive. Using tab on a command input autocompletes that input, where elsewhere it behave…
The prompt buffer (previously known as "minibuffer") supports fuzzy completion: you never have to type the suggestion in full. Just type a portion of what you want and the appropriate suggestion should come to the top. Even typos are supported. If duckduckgo does not load, maybe you enable noscript-mode, proxy-mode or similar? Try starting the browser with `nyxt -I` (no config file). Do other HTTPS site work? `d` is…

Thank you :) I tried this with a few commands and it does select the topmost entry when i hit "enter". However, typing in "duck" and hitting enter does not go to https://duckduckgo.com, which is what was intended. There doesn't seem to be a way to select or cycle through the available entries? mouse clicking does not work and nor do the arrow keys

https://news.ycombinator.com works with nyxt -I, however https://duckduckgo.com/ shows a blank screen. I compiled with the latest webkit2gtk on Alpine Linux. I've had this problem with Surf so it might straight up be a webkit problem.

When I press it it exits nyxt. Running it in a console we can now see this error: https://tpaste.us/x1zJ
Another thing I just noticed, is that hitting "emacs mode" in the command list loads emacs mode, but vi-normal is still active! Hitting "vi-normal" to make it go back into vi-mode does not work, but selecting 'vi' in the settings menu shifts the current buffer back to vi mode. Should I select 'emacs-mode' again to get out of it, like a toggle?

#133If you want a Chrome/Firefox extension that does some of these things and more, check out Surfingkeys: https://github.com/brookhong/Surfingkeys
Similarly, I've been using Modeless Keyboard Navigation[0] (a vimium fork to remove the normal/edit mode distinction) for about 2 years now, and it works wonderfully for navigating to links via keyboard.

Re: Nyxt Browser
#134Wish this were easier to download since it's more common to use Brew now. Very excited at the idea of having fast fuzzy switching of tabs. I wish more things operated like that.
Yeah am really surprised as well. Any plan to add it to Brew?
