Add-on summary

Analyze keywords

Vimium C is an open source browser extension that provides keyboard-based inner-page navigation, browser tab operations, and an enhanced search panel, so you may take full advantages of your browser without a mouse or touchpad.

It supports all original commands of Vimium and some new useful commands (a full list can be seen in a help dialog in the Vimium C Options page). And it can map a same key sequence to different commands for different websites (and/or for different active elements in page).

For example:

  • press f to hint all clickable elements of the current web page
  • press o to show a search panel ("Vomnibar", a safe iframe) to search in your history, bookmarks, opened tabs and configured search engines, and you can even remove a history or tab by selecting a search result and pressing Shift+Delete
  • press j, k, h, l to scroll down/up/left/right on web pages
  • press "/" to search for text; press "v" to enter Visual Mode (just like VIM)
  • press Shift+J, Shift+K, g0, g$ to switch to the previous/next/first/last tab
  • press x to remove a tab, and Shift+X to restore recently closed tabs (sessions), and many other commands
  • command repetition: for example, pressing 5X (5, Shift+X) will restore 5 recent closed tabs
  • configure key mappings to bind Vimium C's tens of commands to other key sequences, and add options to switch command behaviors
  • apply block lists and allow lists of key mappings on configurable special websites and URLs
