Getting mileage on Vimium before the next release

[Phil Crosby]

Hey everyone

I'd like to release the next version of Vimium in two weeks. For the next week, can you try using Vimium from master? Vimium has undergone a lot of internal changes recently and there's a major new feature: a new vomnibar (type "o" to try it).

I've been testing it from the master branch, but I don't use every feature, and I want to ensure the features that you use still work.

Also, feedback on the Vomnibar would be great, especially if you can file a bug with a screenshot where the choices or ranking is clearly not good.

Thanks!

Just updated -- I must say it looks great! Nice work converting everything to Coffeescript, too.

Hi, nice to see this feature, i want to test it, is it just download the from the master branch, then unzip it to ~/.config/chromium/Default/${vimium-plugins-dir} ?

Hi John,

See https://github.com/philc/vimium#vimium---the-hackers-browser -- Right under the line that says "Alternatively, you can install it from source". Post here if you have any more questions. Cheers!

The "o" new feature work great, but what is different "o" and "O"?

i found both "o" and "O" is open current tab, which i expect "o" is open current tab, and "O" is open new tab.

now, i really can browsing few hours without mouse.

thank you.

You'll have to disable your old version manually. I really should have bumped the version before doing this, but you can identify the newer version by its ID, which should be gingihjjdjpccnaghgpgdajjobnobpoe.

> The "o" new feature work great, but what is different "o" and "O"?

"o" -> bring up the vomnibar
"O" -> bring up the vomnibar and pre-populate it with the URL of the currrent page (useful if you want to go to a different subdirectory of the same domain)

You can open the selected link in a new tab by holding down ctrl/cmd when you hit enter.
