Vimari - Keyboard Shortcuts extension for Safari

Actions Status

Download on the Mac App Store

Vimari is a Safari extension that provides keyboard based navigation. The code is heavily based on vimium, a Chrome extension that provides much more extensive features.

Vimari attempts to provide a lightweight port of vimium to Safari, taking the best components of vimium and adapting them to Safari.

Usage

Settings

Command Prefix - Modifier key to hold down with your action key. If you leave it blank you don't need to hold down anything (default setting).

Excluded URLs - Comma separated list of website URLs you don't want to use vimari with. To exclude GitHub for example, provide the value github.com or http://github.com. It's smart and should handle all possible domain cases.

Link Hint Characters - Allowed characters to be used when generating link shortcuts.

Extra detection by cursor style - Detect clickable links by looking for HTML elements having cursor style set to "pointer".

Scroll Size - How much each scroll will move on the page.
