Thank you. Your using `we` made me go to github contributors and sure enough you were one of the top guys :) I guess with the right `hintnames` and `:bind w tabnext` working I am 95% of the way already. Couple of things if I don't come across as ungrateul-- :nativeinstall didn't work for me, so I manually did the (seemingly risky) step. :native now shows 0.1.10 installed but C-i doesn't yet work. I'll look around and post back. I am on Linux. I tried binding C-c but it doesn't seem to work as you guessed. Also- how about using C-z for stop once you have imap and nmap working? Because you're right C-c could get annoying but `stop` is an oft-used feature too. About feature parity- vimperator also gave you `readline` style C-a, C-e C-w in text-fields. I'm going to read the hell out of the tutor and help as soon as I get some time. Vimperator (now Tridactyl!) means a lot to me since it makes me much more productive.

What do you mean by the manual step for nativeinstall? It is risky if you don't trust us, which is why Mozilla won't let us do it automatically, so it has to be manual. What do you mean by imap and nmap? We already have separate binds for normal and insert mode (which is why you can type into text boxes ;) ). I think Ctrl-Z was bound to ignore mode in Pentadactyl. Now I think about it, I don't know why it isn't bound to ignore mode; I should probably do that. Anyway, `stop` is just fundamentally broken at the moment because we can't access the page until it loads a bit. It is bound to `x` by default. We actually have most of the readline binds. They're hidden away on the help page - if you look at the third paragraph "text areas that can be found here" - but we left them unbound by default because I don't use them and we can't rebind ctrl-w. I don't want to train people that we have readline binds and make them close tabs that they're editing text in :) As for your editor - I don't know why it isn't working without more information. Feel free to file an issue on GitHub. (For the avoidance of doubt - you need to have a text box focused to use it - I know it sounds silly but it has come up before). You don't sound ungrateful - Tridactyl is complicated, has weird defaults, and is badly documented.

  Sorry i immediately set editorcmd but the edit was for some reason posted as a sibling comment that I then deleted.(I couldn't reply immediately afterwards because this website didn't have a reply button for your comment then) Maybe ZZ could be stop then?

    ZZ closes all your tabs and windows. `viewconfig nmaps` will show you all the normal mode binds, if you're curious. I'm reasonably happy with "x" for stop.
