Whining developer here. The documentation was this: https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/32ac11fe9d4321905fe1b412d5780f8952f55363/src/excmds.ts#L512 htt

A fragment of that documentation would have been displayed in our tab completions as fixamo was typed. As many other replies have mentioned, it was only ever run if users installed our native executable, and ran `fixamo` themselves.

Thanks for developing Tridactyl. It's sad how Mozilla killed Vimperator with the transition to WebExtensions. And how many of its features still cannot be replicated in Tridactyl, which I otherwise love, despite all your efforts. Due to the new addon model, addons don't get the chance to run till the page finishes loading. So e.g. a 404 or a slow page force you to revert to standard keybindings which ruins the immersive Vim user experience. Mozilla should perhaps create an API for privileged extensions. I know the userbase is small. But it's a very important userbase to keep the platform healthy.

  There is some prior for this in that they actually already have a "God mode" permission [1] that they grant to some of their own extensions such as the screenshot tool (which might not be an extension any more). I don't think they'd let us have it, though. It would be really nice to work on PDFs again!

  I should probably also point you to this comment - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20719678 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20719678 - some interaction before pages load would be possible if that keyboard-api was brought up-to-date and merged into Firefox.

    And mouse, gestures have to have such garbage responsiveness right now.

      And don't work on "privileged" pages.

    Thanks. I had heard about keyboard-api somewhere in Tridactyl issues page I think. Probably in the issue linked in that comment. I'd love to see Mozilla helping a bit by enabling APIs that are necessary to make Tridactyl as immersive as Vimperator was.
