Your answers were very helpful. I can now save, bookmark or look at the links and pictures. But I still haven't figured out how to emulate the right click functionality. Maybe, I need to see more into the docs (and I am doing that), but if anybody knows how do I inspect some element, for example (an functionality achieved by right-click in firefox), it would be great. As an example, you can see the dimensions of an image this way in firefox, is there someway i can do something similar in conkeror?

I didn't exactly get this. Can conkeror be extended by programming in Emacs Lisp ?

Thanks, I did indeed (re)install it from there. For some reason, the conkeror I had installed from my package manager (in Debian Lenny) wasn't accepting the configuration in my .conkerorrc. The new one is perfectly working the way it should have been.

Thanks for the tips. I understand that conkeror could be made to behave like vimperator by changing keybindings. What I actually wanted to know is if it is possible to make conkeror "completely" behave like Vimperator "only" by changing the keybindings or does one need to do more than that (for example, some deeper hacking)?
Btw, your dumpln trick is great. Thanks. The newer conkeror (from the snapshot) works so neat.
Btw, I wanted to ask a few more things too. Hope nobody minds :)
1. The main reason I tried Conkeror is the configuration of machine I use. It's an old box with memory and CPU freq a lot lesser than of modern machines. When I use firefox with many tabs, it really slows down the computer and often brings it to knees. I hope conkeror is lighter in comparision and faster too. My experience so far suggests the same. If somebody knows of some benchmarks, comparision or statistics related to this, it would be nice to have a look.
2. How do I emulate the "awesome bar" of firefox (ie the address bar) ? Like suggesting me the websites already visited or bookmarked.
3. If there's someway in which I can add the "restore tabs from last session" feature to conkeror, would be glad to know how.
4. How/where to add bookmarklets. I had a few bookmarklets in Firefox that I miss now. How do I bring them back in conkeror? Is it by creating additional keybindinds for the code of bookmarklet (they are javacsripts) or is there some other way?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
