Re: [orca-list] Conkeror Web browser



Yes, I'm using it. It's well... not that you might expect, but it's accessible. I expected that incremental searching will work, but it wouldn't. It has some keywords like firefox. But there is other possibility. There is good ff extension called firemacs, which adds emacs keyboard shortcuts to the firefox and there is incremental searching working. You have to change some of them to not to crash with ff shortcuts. I'm using conkeror for very quick brovsing when I only need to look something up.

Has anybody tried this with Orca? It is based on Mozilla, and therefore access

Description: keyboard focused web browser with Emacs look and feel
  Conkeror is a highly-programmable web browser based on Mozilla XULRunner. It
  has a sophisticated keyboard system for running commands and interacting with
  web page content, modelled after Emacs and Lynx. It is self-documenting and
  extensible with JavaScript.

  It comes with builtin support for several Web 2.0 sites like several Google
  services (Search, Gmail, Maps, Reader, etc.), Del.icio.us, Reddit, Last.fm and
  YouTube. For easier editing of form fields, it can spawn external editors. For
  this feature the recommended conkeror-spawn-process-helper package needs to be
  installed.

  Despite its very similar sounding name, Conkeror is not related to the KDE web
  browser and file manager Konqueror in any way.
