1 why conkeror

conkeror几年前我用过，还是一个不错的浏览器，最大的特点是可以保持emacs的击键习惯， 除了博客编写/视频播放需要鼠标辅助下外， 其他操作几乎完全由键盘完成，真是懒人必备啊。自Ubuntu 13.10开始已经没有官方的conkeror安装源，那就编译吧，

2 compile and install

当然还是要首先clone到源代码：

git clone git://repo.or.cz/conkeror.git

然后根据官方文档的提示安装依赖库并编译

apt-get install fakeroot quilt debhelper
fakeroot debian/rules binary

一切顺利。然后复制目录：

sudo cp -r ./debian/conkeror/usr/share/conkeror /usr/share/

还要修改一下配置文件：我的代码目录是/opt/conkeror, 所以打开文件/opt/conkeror/debian/bin/conkeror

将一开始的值设置为

#!/bin/sh
# Wrapper around xulrunner/firefox to start the xulrunner application conkeror
# Written by Axel Beckert <abe@deuxchevaux.org> for the Debian Project

# Find an appropriate xulrunner binary
XULRUNNER='firefox -app'

好了，现在创建链接：

ln -s /opt/conkeror/debian/bin/conkeror /usr/bin/conkeror
chmod +x /usr/bin/conkeror

好了，运行命令conkeror，可以看到漂亮的浏览器了。

3 make as default browser for emacs

first make sure the directory exists

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/applications/

then edit the file ~/.local/share/applications/conkeror.desktop and put the following contents in

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Icon=conkeror.png
Name=Conkeror
Comment=Emacs like Web Browser
GenericName=Web Browser
Exec=conkeror %u
Categories=GNOME;GTK;Network;WebBrowser;
MimeType=text/html;text/xml;application/xhtml+xml;application/xml;application/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml;application/rss+xml;application/rdf+xml;image/gif;image/jpeg;image/png;x-scheme-handler/http;x-scheme-handler/https;x-scheme-handler/ftp;x-scheme-handler/chrome;video/webm;

Now, You can search "conkeror" in Ubuntu unity search interface.

在init.el中设置

;; browser
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic browse-url-generic-program "conkeror")

现在在emacs中点击链接，conkeror启动了。或者在M-x中运行命令browse-url-generic，然后输入url，就可以启动conkeror.

4 make as default browser for OS and emacs org mode

append the following into ~/.profile file, then relogin Ubuntu

export BROWSER=conkeror

in org-mode, type C-c C-e h o, the html file generated from org file will be opened by conkeror now.
