Feature Request: Add bookmark aliases to Bookmark Vomnibar #3523

Open dylanjm opened 4 years ago

dylanjm commented 4 years ago

Firefox has the ability to set keyword properties for your bookmarks. So you can set gh as a short-cut alias to your bookmark for github.com. This could be a useful feature in vimium.

It doesn't have to read the keywords from Firefox itself, but be a separate stand-alone feature to use in the Vomnibar. So the expected workflow would be something like:

Vimium Options

keyword gh "www.github.com" 
B gh <RET>

or 

o gh <RET>
O gh <RET>

openUrl supports URLs are its options: so map Bgh createTab https://www.github.com will make Bgh open GitHub.

@dylanjm if you're on firefox you might checkout https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/warpdrive-ff/ it's pretty magical. it's based on the zsh warp drive extension

great design inspiration for incorporating something similar to vimium, i'm only a year into my vim discovery, so i'm not sure which workflow it would fit into, maybe something like the tag commands in the bookmarks?

If you edit the bookmark and add your "alias" to the bookmark name, you will be able to get to that bookmark quickly:
