  Current conkeror from git does not require you to enter the filename
in the form in the start page.  It will automatically load ~/.conkerorrc
(if it is a file) or ~/.conkerorrc/*.js (if it is a directory).  If you
still have trouble getting your rc to load, comment or delete everything
in it, and see if you can get some simple terminal output:

   dumpln("hello, world!");


  As someone else mentioned, the command is `M-x reinit'.

  Some vi-like search bindings:

   define_key(content_buffer_normal_keymap, "/", "isearch-forward");
   define_key(content_buffer_normal_keymap, "?", "isearch-backward");
   define_key(content_buffer_normal_keymap, "n", "isearch-continue-forward");
   define_key(content_buffer_normal_keymap, "N", "isearch-continue-backward");

  The commands isearch-continue-[forward/backward] are bound on S and R
by default, and you may just want to use those unless you are planning
to make a whole new binding set.

   define_key(default_global_keymap, "F", "follow-new-buffer");
