• dmenu - Address bar
• webkit2gtk - browser engine
• xprop
• gcr

• ca-certificates
• curl ( default download handler )
• st ( default terminal for curl )
• mpv ( default video player )
• gdb and gdb-debug ( helps prevent intermittent crashes )

• youtube-dl ( for playing videos )
• dmenuhandler ( for specific interactions with links )
• linkhandler ( for automatically interactions with links )
• pass & passmenu ( convinient embedded password manager )

• hopefully I can remove the dependency on passmenu
• runs into issues when focuse is taken away from surf
• to simply copy the password to clipboard remove the --type arg in PASS()

• Bookmarks

• open a web page with linkhandler script
• open a web page with dmenuhandler script
• open middle clicked link with linkhandler
• open control-middle clicked link with dmenuhandler
• scrolling no longer relies on depreciated code
• scroll directly to top and bottom of screen with ctrl-g and ctrl-shift-g respectively
• if the URL is not a full link is used it is searched with duckduckgo
  • this allows you to use !Bang searching in dmenu
• removed togglestats, and pagestats from title to look better with dwm

p.s. For more help checkout Surf Demystified

surf is a simple Web browser based on WebKit/GTK+.

In order to build surf you need GTK+ and Webkit/GTK+ header files.

In order to use the functionality of the url-bar, also install dmenu[0].

Edit config.mk to match your local setup (surf is installed into the /usr/local namespace by default).

Afterwards enter the following command to build and install surf (if necessary as root):

make clean install

run surf [URI]

See the manpage for further options.

For running surf in tabbed[1] there is a script included in the distribution, which is run like this:

surf-open.sh [URI]

Further invocations of the script will run surf with the specified URI in this instance of tabbed.
