Vimperator recommended setting

By way of study of Vim, I have begun to use Vimperator add-on for Firefox recently.

Therefore please teach it if there is recommended setting.

Two settings are extremely useful, at least for me:

:set wildoption=auto
:set cpt=l

You can try them from vimperator command line first. After you type in the first one, you will see dynamic hints immediately, for example, if you continue to try the second command and to see what mean by 'l' . With wildoption on, you access to an item from the hint list by pressing Tab key, instead of arrow keys which would not work in most cases.

Another one I like is to set up my Bookmarks as sidebar by default, the command is:

:sidebar Bookmarks

One more trick after you have wildoptions on, you can access to FireFox menu items by typing:

:emenu [key_word]
# or
:em[tab]

where key_word is any menu key word such as Add-on.

I have several blogs on vimperator and how to set vimperator default settings.

Enjoy Vimperator. It is a great add-on for Firefox.
