[Feature Request] Edit URL in Vim #1623

Open MahdiNazemi opened 1 month ago

Would it be possible to edit a tab's URL with Firenvim? I see that Surfingkeys has support for this, but uses ACE to edit the URL (;u shortcut key).

Have you tried Tridactyl? It isn't an exact match for this query as its URL editor interface doensn't pass control to Firenvim, but as far as using VIM-like bindings to control the browser (including useful takes on editing the current url, opening edited URLs in new tabs, etc) I've found it quite impressive. It basically becomes VIM's "normal" mode for the browser tab being a buffer, and URL manipulation is just something else you do in command mode.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have looked at it a few times but decided to stay with Vimium-C.

Sometimes I have to work with very long URLs, and it would be nice to have easymotion and other plugins that can help with quickly editing parts of the URL.
