New Conkeror User seeking some help

Hi all,
I just started using Conkeror yesterday and I'm totally in love with it. Thanks a lot to the great team and the community behind it. I've been a long time user of Vim and Vimperator and I've some questions that I'd like to post here. If they are already answered elsewhere, kindly send me the link to those pages. I ried looking at a few places and couldn't find answer to these queries:
1. My .conkerorrc file doesn't seem to work:
I've created a .conkerorrc file and entered a few settings like the one mentioned here: http://conkeror.org/Tabs but it seems like it isn't working. Then, I tried replacing the .conkeror file with a simpler one that just defined a couple of keybindings. I entered the file's full path in the start page (C-h i) where a text box for this purpose is located. Somewhere I read that the command to reload the rc file with "rcinit" command but I couldn't understand where to enter that command.
2. How to emulate the right-click functionality?
Alright, I don't want to be using my mouse when I use Conkeror, but I would like to copy the URL of links/images etc and so on. I want to bookmark a link present in a webpage or save an image, see more properties associated with an element. Any idea how do I do that? Any additional keybindings I need to include in my rc file?
3. Finally, I want to develop a conkeror for vim users
Being a vim user, vimperator was very easy for me to get used to. Not that conkeror is impossible, but it would always be nice for a vim user to search using '/' instead of C-s , open link in new buffer with F instead of C-u f and so on. How do I make conkeror behave like vimperator? Do I need to dig deeper into Conkeror codes or is it just a matter of replacing conkeror keybindings with the appropriate vimperator-style keybindings? Any howto or tutorial available in this regard? If not, I'd like to be spending a few days to do this, if someone would be able to provide me with the existing text and help already available. I think that would be a great step towards making a great tool like Conkeror more popular.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Bibek
