I pair it with a custom userChrome.css which removes the tab bar (I use 'b' to view and access tabs whenever I need them), affording me more vertical real-estate.
My only gripe was that the search navigation with C-g(?) was very clunky and painful so I unbound C-f and it works just fine now. I'm sure that's a matter of personal preference, though.
for example, can you share the content of the userChrome.css and the trydactyl configuration needed to bind 'b' with the toggle action?
For userChrome, I use https://github.com/MrOtherGuy/firefox-csshacks/blob/master/c...
Not my GitHub, but incredibly useful repo for all kinds of userChrome shenanigans. Personally I keep it to a minimum (literally just this hack) so that I have less stuff to look at if an update breaks something.
We offer some help with userchrome via `:guiset` which I personally use, but you should beware that Mozilla break it fairly often (maybe once every 6 months) with updates.
