#+TITLE: Conkeror
#+STARTUP: showall
[[http://conkeror.org][Conkeror]] is an awesome xulrunner-based web browser with Emacs-like
functionality. It is easily extended and if you like Emacs, a
pleasure to use. It does not seem to have great bookmark management
capabilities, unless you use firefox's bookmarking tools. This is one
of the reasons CLark was written.
* Set-up
To use the CLark Conkeror module you need to put its location in
Conkeror's load path, afterwards you should load or require it. So
in your ~.conkerorrc~ you should put:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
load_paths.push("file:///path/to/clark/js/");
require("clark");
#+END_EXAMPLE
If you don't have the CLark executable in your path you should set
the =clark_program= user variable to the location of the CLark
executable:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
clark_program = "/path/to/clark";
#+END_EXAMPLE
Once that is done you kan either bind the available functions to
the keys you like, or you could bind =clark_keymap= to a key, for
example:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
define_key(content_buffer_normal_keymap, "b", clark_keymap);
#+END_EXAMPLE
If you would like to see whether or not you've bookmarked the
current URL, you could add the =clark_bookmarked_widget= to your
Conkeror mode-line:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
add_hook("mode_line_hook", mode_line_adder(clark_bookmarked_widget), true);
#+END_EXAMPLE
If you don't like the way the =clark_bookmarked_widget= shows you
whether or not the current URL has been bookmarked, you can
customize these by setting either or both of the variables
=clark_bookmarked_string= and =clark_not_bookmarked_string=.
* Usage
The Conkeror module is written to mirror the functionality found in
CLark, here's a list of its commands:
- =clark-exists-p= :: Prints an indication of whether or not the
current URL has been bookmarked. Uses the same
command the =clark_bookmarked_widget= does, only
requires the user to explicitly call it.
- =clark-add= :: Add the curren URL to CLark. Asks for a title,
description and any tags you wish to assign it.
- =clark-add-link= :: Does the same thing =clark-add= does, except it
also asks which link found on the current page
to bookmark, instead of using the current URL.
- =clark-edit= :: Edit the current URL's data. Asks for a name and a
description, if either one is left empty, it is not
sent to CLark and thus not changed.
- =clark-find-url= :: Calls =find-url= with completions gathered from
CLark. Uses the =search= command, so any text
typed into the minibuffer gets matched as a
substring of a bookmark's title, or a tag.
- =clark-find-url-new-buffer= :: Does thee same thing =clark-find-url=
does, except it opens the URL in a new buffer, instead of the
current buffer.
- =clark-remove= :: Removes the current URL from CLark.
- =clark-set-tags= :: Replace or remove the tags for the current url's
bookmark. If any tags are given they replace the
bookmark's old tags, if the field is left empty,
all tags are removed.
All of these are included in the =clark_keymap=.
