Interesting. Are you running lynx inside a vim terminal buffer?

#24Simple man: I see a screen with a window manager with gaps, I scream. We're paying thousands of dollars for machines with high resolution displays, why don't people use the whole display???

#26I use Surfingkeys [1] with Firefox (also for Chrome) for this. Last time I looked it was by far the best solution and superior to vimium. [1]: https://github.com/brookhong/Surfingkeys

#29Earlier quoted context omitted.
And Vimium C
I think Vimium C works better than Vimium. It's been so long since I switched that I can't remember exactly why, though.
I also noticed that Vimium C is better at finding clickable elements for hints.

#30Wow, I used Ratpoison around 20 years ago. SunOS labs in school used some window manager I couldn't stand (don't remember which) and I saw a classmate with basically no window chrome on their display, and was intrigued.
They helped me compile it (no small feat given our resource constraints) and off I went, until my hand started to cramp a year later from hitting ctrl-t so much. I switched to ion for awhile, and then ended up scavenging a linux box to do assignments from home.
I'm happy to see some folks still holding firm on the "no-pointer" front.
