About Rofi Browser Controller
Rofi Browser Controller connects Chromium to Rofi on Linux, providing a fast keyboard-driven way to navigate your browser without adding an in-page user interface.
Features:
- Search and activate open tabs.
- Search recent browsing history and open a result.
- Search history limited to the current website.
- Return to the previously active tab.
- List completed downloads, copy a path, or open a selected file.
- Launch every command from the toolbar popup or configurable extension shortcuts.
The extension requires the companion native messaging host and Rofi. All browser information stays on the user's computer. There is no telemetry, account, advertising, or remote service.
