Features

Vim-like keybindings (h, j, k, l, gg, G, 0, $, ZZ, <C-f>, etc.)
Ex commands (:quit, :open www.foo.com, ...)
Tab completion available for all commands with support for 'longest' matching when set in 'wildmode'
Extensions! Yes, you can extend Vimperator's functionality with scripts just like you can extend Firefox with extensions.
Explore JavaScript objects with :echo window and even context-sensitive tab completion.
Hit-a-hint like navigation of links (start with f to follow a link)
Advanced completion of bookmark and history URLs (searching also in title, not only URL)
Vim-like statusline with a wget-like progress bar
Minimal GUI (easily hide useless menubar and toolbar with :set guioptions=)
Ability to :source JavaScript files, and to use a ~/.vimperatorrc file with syntax highlighting if you install vimperator.vim
Easy quick searches (:open foo will search for "foo" in google, :open ebay terminator will search for "terminator" on ebay) with support for Firefox keyword bookmarks and search engines
Count supported for many commands (3<C-o> will go back 3 pages)
Beep on errors
Marks support (ma to set mark 'a' on a webpage, 'a to go there)
QuickMarks? support (quickly go to previously marked web pages with go{a-zA-Z0-9})
:map and :command support (and feedkeys() for script writers)
:time support for profiling
Move the text cursor and select text with vim keys and a visual mode.
External editor support
