======

Another minimal web browser with vim-like bindings, but in Python in this time

Roland aims to be modular yet complete, with a small code base. It currently

comes in at ~3000 lines of code, yet provides...

 - UI is *fast*. None of the latency from Vimperator here.

 - configuration via Python (see `example_config.py`)

 - configurable popup blocker

 - download manager

 - history

 - cookie management

 - link-follow support

Roland tries to provide as little UI as possible, because that way there's less

reason to use the mouse. It uses libnotify for notifications (e.g. errors,

download progress) and an entry field for all other input. Roland aims to have

NO popup windows of any kind, nothing that is not controllable via the

keyboard. If you find one, it's a bug.

Configuration

-------------

Configuration goes at ~/.config/roland/config.py. See `example_config.py` for

my config.
