This is my personal build of lariza. I have changed some keybindings and added a couple features to fit my needs: - Search engine functionality [Ctrl+S] - File chooser for downloads - Permission handling dialogues - Cookie support The manual pages have been updated to reflect all of these changes.

Background information ---------------------- What lariza is and what it's not lariza does what I need. It won't do other things. I'm open for pull requests but please don't be upset if I turn them down -- which might happen if it's a feature that I simply don't need. That being said, you should have a look at the PATCHES file. :-) lariza does not compete with powerful browsers like dwb or luakit, nor with monstrous applications like Firefox or Chromium. lariza won't have persistent storage, nor a plugin system, nor cloud sync, nor bookmarks. About the name "lariza" stems from a german sentence: Alle anderen waren mir zu anstrengend. l a r i z a That phrase basically means: "It was too tiresome to deal with any other browser." I couldn't find a simple browser that does just what I need. Most of them are utterly bloated, others lack essential functions. Thus, I was forced to write scripts and tools and stuff to deal with these issues. That is what was tiresome. I don't want to work around bugs or nonsensical behavior anymore. So, I wrote my own browser^W WebKit GUI. WebKit does all the dirty work.
