This has been an interest of mine for a long time generally for efficiencie's sake (ratpoison dm, vim and vimlike text editing for most applications) however moving to a laptop as my main work machine, with only a couple of usb slots and very limited space, made it come up on my list of priorities again.

Being a new contender to the mouseless browser arena, I have installed nyxt and have mucked around a little on it and it seems really powerful however I have not been bothered to take the learning curve to learn it properly yet so it has fallen by the wayside. I did make a dent in it when I was without internet for a short spell so went through a little of the inbuilt tutorial while offline but as soon as my connection was back I went back to using firefox with keyboard shortcuts.

While this (ff) does not provide full non mouse functionality I have found, with carat browsing, it does the job about 80-90% of the time. The remainder is for cases when I just haven't been able to find a way around it when there are some context menus that are probably js and do not yield to tabbing or the search (C-f) function. Yes there is a context menu button on keyboards which has given me a resolution in some rare cases like form filling but the element must be highlighted for that and so was useful just when I wanted to right click or sucklike, not when I wasn't able to find the element to interact with.

Vimb I tried in the past and found it lacking. The hints I found very unreliable. Nyxt seems to have picked up where vimb left off, very reliable hinting on the little I tried, and so far looks very solid however just due to apathy and having found a groove with ff I have not been motivated to really get to grips with it.

I do want to crack nyxt though so is on the list of to-dos. Just waiting for a gust of inspiration.

I've tried using command line browsers, but always return to FF or even Dillo.

Most of the older ones work OK, but I just got frustrated with the interfaces.

Lynx, links, links2, Elinks, w3m, tried them all.....good luck finding yours.

Well command line browsers, which I also tried but only go back to if my X breaks on an update for instance, are something different to keyboard focused X browsers, which is what I am discussing here.

OK, so maybe this will help - https://www.slant.co/topics/11931/~w...ard-navigation
