Tridactyl par Colin Caine, Oliver Blanthorn
Vim, but in your browser. Replace Firefox's control mechanism with one modelled on Vim. This addon is very usable, but is in an early stage of development. We intend to implement the majority of Vimperator's features.

Permissions:
Since Tridactyl aims to provide all the features Vimperator and Pentadactyl had, it requires quite a few permissions. Here we describe the specific permissions and why we need them.
- Access your data for all websites:

- Exchange messages with programs other than Firefox:
- This permission is required for Tridactyl to interact with your operating system (opening your editor to edit text areas, sending links to your video player, reading a configuration file from your diskâŠ). This is possible thanks to an external executable we provide. If you feel this gives Tridactyl too much power you can chose not to install the external executable: Tridactyl will still work but wonât be able to start external programs.
- Read and modify bookmarks:
- Tridactylâs command line has a powerful autocompletion mechanism. In order to be able to autocomplete your bookmarks, Tridactyl needs to read them.
- Clear recent browsing history, cookies, and related data:
- Tridactyl implements the
:sanitise
command Vimperator and Pentadactyl had. It works a bit like the âClear All Historyâ dialog you can access by pressingCtrl+Shift+Del
on default Firefox.

command which is bound tou

- Access browser activity during navigation:
- This is needed for Tridactyl to be able to go back to normal mode every time you open a new page. In the future we may use it for autocommands.
