0. Characters Used for Link Hints!

By default some characters are set for link hints. But I am more comfortable with the following keys
"sdfercvjkluim". So I set the characters to "fjdkslrueiwvm". But You can choose the key which you are comfortable with and use them. So when you press "f" or "F", characters used to suggest links will be the ones which you are comfortable to type!

1. Navigating Your History!

I navigate back and forth a lot. To back in history, I need to press "H" ( which means SHIFT + h ). So I mapped this 'h'. Actually by default h is mapped to scroll left, which I never use at all. So, to go back 3 pages in history, U just press "3h". The same applies for "L" also.

2. Navigating to New pages

By default "o" is mapped to open URL ( or bookmarks or history ) in current tab and "O" to open them in new tab. Most of the time, I need to open URL in new tabs only so I swapped the above options. The same goes for "b" ( for bookmarks ) also.

You can get a list of all shortcuts  at Vimium Github page or if You have installed Vimium, You can just press "?" You can set these custom maps in advanced settings of Vimium
