Hi!

I've just started using vimb and have a few questions about how to user it. I tried to find answers from the manual and with googling but couldn't spot any, could be that I just missed something.

Anyway, here are my questions:

1. Can I save to the config file from vimb or do I need to edit the file with a text editor? I wrote ":set home-page=www.foobar.com" but this setting didn't persist and I got no config file. I would have wanted to add permanent configs from vimb without needing to open a text editor.

2. If I then manually modify the config file, can I somehow reload vimb instance so that it reads the configs from the file or do I need to close it (and all other windows) and re-open them? Or how can I re-read configuration from the config file?

3. How can I switch to a different profile? Either the running instance (if possible) or when opening a new tab (:tabopen). I know the profile can be given as a command line argument, but I'd like to manage the profile selection from vimb itself.

4. How can I achieve similar "private browsing" experience as typically provided by browsers? I tried ":set private-browsing=true" but vimb still writes my browsing/command history etc to the corresponding history file. Perhaps opening with a different profile and then wiping the profile afterwards? Can I wipe the profile (or at least history, cookies.db, closed, command and search files, maybe others too) somehow from vimb? Or how do you achieve "incognito mode" which leaves no traces?

Thanks for any tips!

Best regards,
Jaakko
