Qutebrowser – a keyboard-driven, vim-like browser based on PyQt5 and QtWebKit

I love the idea (I use FFox with vimperator as my browser of choice), but the OS-X install instructions are too cumbersome at the moment.
I just merged a pull request which makes things a lot easier by using MacPorts/Homebrew:

It's easy on MacOS X if you have i.e. MacPorts:
$ sudo port install python34 py34-jinja2 asciidoc py34-pygments py34-pyqt5
$ git clone https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser.git
$ sudo port install python34 py34-jinja2 asciidoc py34-pygments py34-pyqt5
$ git clone https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser.git
Any relation to qute?

None I knew of. Flo (“The Compiler”) is just hacking stuff, with help from some others.
Nope - damn, choosing a good name with no collisions is hard ;)
What's the status of QtWebKit now? It was removed from WebKit trunk about a year ago...
As of Qt 5.4, it's in maintenance mode, and will be deprecated soon.

Development still was continued in Qt's own tree, but as it was mentioned, as of Qt 5.4 only bugfixes will be done.
Though at some point I plan adding a QtWebEngine (i.e. Blink/Chromium) backend to qutebrowser.

Instead of w3-mode, I always thought someone should combine Emacs with a web layout engine.
It is a bit hard to stay motivated to use this, like I had when starting to use vim and dvorak, but it certainly has potential.
