Introduction
''''''''''''
What is Midori
--------------
Midori is a lightweight and portable web browser based on Gtk+. The
interface is designed to be intuitive yet powerful.
* Full integration with GTK+2.
* Fast rendering with WebKit.
* Tabs, windows and session management.
* Flexibly configurable Web Search.
* User scripts and user styles support.
* Straightforward bookmark management.
* Customizable and extensible interface.
* Extensible via Javascript.
* Custom context menu actions.
Running Midori
--------------
* If you are using a graphical desktop environment you will usually find
Midori in the menu under Network.
* You can also run Midori from a console or a Run dialog.
See also `Command line usage`.
$ midori
A browser window appears where you can start navigating the web right away.
The main interface
--------------------------
The main browser window consists of a few basic elements:
* The menubar. It's pretty much standardized and gives you access to
allmost all features, many of the items have a keyboard shortcut by default.
See also `Keyboard shortcuts`_.
* The navigationbar. It lets you open tabs, go back and forward, enter
addresses, search the web and reopen closed tabs.
See also `The navigationbar`.
* The sidepanel. It takes a pretty central role in the functionality it provides,
yet it can be hidden and resized to not distract you.
See also `The sidepanel`.
* The statusbar. It displays informational text when hovering something
with a pointer. That's it.

''''''''''''''''''''
Command line usage
------------------
Running Midori normally works as follows:
* $ midori
Just run a new instance of Midori. If an instance of Midori is already
running a new window in that instance will be opened.
* $ midori [URIs]
You can supply any number of URIs to open as arguments. If you have a
saved session or a running instance they will be added to the last
active window.
* $ midori [URI1]|[URI2]|...
You can separate URIS by a pipe (|) as well. They are handled as if you
provided all URIs as separate arguments.
* $ midori [JAVASCRIPT]
If you pass a filename ending with ".js" Midori will attempt to run
the contents of the file as javascript code.
Note that support for opening tabs in an existing instance depends on
your build and may not be available on some platforms.
The following arguments are supported if you call Midori from a command line.
+--------------+--------------+------------------------------------------------+
| Short option | Long option | Function |
+==============+==============+================================================+
| -i | --id | This is an internal identifier. It is used to |
| | | spawn child processes for new tabs. Do not use |
| | | it unless you know what you are doing. |
+--------------+--------------+------------------------------------------------+
| -v | --version | Show version information and exit. |

Frequently asked questions
''''''''''''''''''''''''''
How do you pronounce Midori and what does it mean anyway?
---------------------------------------------------------
Pronounce it "midoɺi", with a Bavarian/ Japanese "r" or "Mee-Doh-Ree"
in English or read it Italian. The name comes from the Japanese word
緑 (みどり) for the colour "green".
What does the logo mean?
------------------------
The paw of a green cat. Obviously. Also it resembles the letter "M"
in "Midori". The curving is supposed to emphasize speed.
On which platforms does Midori run currently?
---------------------------------------------
Midori is basically very portable and should run on all platforms that
its dependencies support.
Under which license is Midori distributed?
