Hi,

As already signaled, I've built Debian packages of conkeror:

http://noone.org/debian/conkeror_0.9~git080522-1_all.deb
http://noone.org/debian/conkeror-spawn-process-helper_0.9~git080522-1_i386.deb
http://noone.org/debian/conkeror-spawn-process-helper_0.9~git080522-1_amd64.deb

They'll hit the Debian NEW queue probably during the next days. If
everything goes fine, they should show up in Debian Unstable after a
while and later also in Debian Testing.

For the conkeror Debian package, I also wrote a man page about
conkeror. But I think the man page is useful also outside Debian
package, maybe even as official part of conkeror in the future. So I
attached it to this mail. Comments and corrections are welcome!

                Regards, Axel

.TH CONKEROR 1 "June 4, 2008"
.SH NAME
conkeror \- a web browser modeled after Emacs
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B conkeror 
.RI [ options ] 
.RI [ url ]
.RI ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly
.B conkeror
.PP
\fBconkeror\fP is a web browser based on xulrunner, the Mozilla
application framework that also powers Mozilla Firefox. It can be
controlled completely with the keyboard. The keybindings are very
similar to those from Emacs, so Emacs users should immediately feel at
home.
.SH OPTIONS
This program has the same options as all other xulrunner applications.
A summary of more important options is included below. All options are
listed by calling \fBconkeror --help\fP.
.TP
.B \-h, \-\-help
Show summary of options.
.TP
.B \-v, \-\-version
Show version of program.
.TP
.B \-\-display=DISPLAY
X display to use
.TP
.B \-height <value>
Set height of startup window to <value>
.TP
.B \-width <value>
Set width of startup window to <value>
.TP
.B \-P <profile>
Start with profile <profile>
.TP
.B \-ProfileManager

.TP
.B \-no\-remote
Open new instance, not a new window in running instance.
.TP
.B \-UILocale <locale>
Start with <locale> resources as UI Locale.
.TP
.B \-safe-mode

.TP
.B -jsconsole
Open the Error console.
.SH CONCEPTS
Similar to Emacs conkeror works with windows and buffers instead of
windows and tabs.
.PP
When changing buffers with \fBC-x b\fP or killing buffers with \fBC-x
k\fP, you can cut down the list of buffers by typing a few characters
hich filters the list for buffers which match these characters and
then choosing them from the matching list of buffers with cursor keys.
.PP
The same idea is present with bookmarks: Bookmarks are looked up by
pressing \fBg\fP to go to a new page and then start typing parts of the
bookmarks title or URL.
.SH TIPS AND TRICKS
If you want to bookmark a page with \fBb\fP and the page has frames or
inline frames (e.g. advertisments) you will be asked which frame to
bookmark. If you want to bookmark the whole page with all frames,
press \fB0\fP.
.PP
If you want to copy the link of the current page, press \fBc\fP for
copy link and then type \fB0\fP for the current page instead of a link
on this page.
.PP
Instead of typing the link number when following or copying a link,
you can also type a part of the linked text. If don't type a number
and one links is already active (e.g. after going back one page in the
history) that link will be selected.
.SH KEYBINDINGS
.PP
When you start it up initially you see the help page with all
informations and a tutorial on how to use conkeror. You alway come
back there by typing \fBC-h i\fP which means pressing and holding the
Control key (on PCs this often is the Alt key) and then pressing
"i". The tutorial can be reached by pressing \fBC-h t\fP.
.PP
