WannaBe Documentation

Overview

Basics

Use of WannaBe is similar to other web browsers. Blue text represents a hyperlink, which can be accessed by single-clicking. Green text represents a link to embedded images, which can be clicked to download.

Hidden Features

WannaBe's user interface is very spartan to keep it lean and fast, so some features are not readily apparent. They include:

• command-<period> will cancel any connection associated with the frontmost window. (Cancelling is necessary in order to close the window or quit.)
• tab will switch the selection between the URL box at the top of the window and the main text view below.
• command-L will select all the text in the URL box at the top of the window.
• command-clicking a link will open it in a new window.
• shift-clicking a link will copy its URL to the clipboard.
• option-click will save a linked-to file to disk.
• command-left arrow will go "back".
• command-right arrow will go "forward".
• option-command-<left arrow> will go "full back".
• option-command-<right arrow> will go "full forward".
• proxy support is enabled via Internet Config.
