web page hit @kbd{g} (@code{eww-reload}). Pressing @kbd{w}
(@code{eww-copy-page-url}) will copy the current URL to the kill ring.
+@findex eww-readable
+@kindex R
+ The @kbd{R} command (@code{eww-readable}) will attempt to determine
+which part of the document contains the ``readable'' text, and will
+only display this part. This usually gets rid of menus and the like.
+
+@findex eww-toggle-fonts
+@findex shr-use-fonts
+@kindex F
+ The @kbd{F} command (@code{eww-toggle-fonts}) toggles whether to use
+variable-pitch fonts or not. This sets the @code{shr-use-fonts} variable.
+
+@findex eww-toggle-colors
+@findex shr-use-colors
+@kindex F
+ The @kbd{C} command (@code{eww-toggle-colors}) toggles whether to use
+HTML-specified colors or not. This sets the @code{shr-use-colors} variable.

@cindex History
EWW remembers the URLs you have visited to allow you to go back and
forth between them. By pressing @kbd{l} (@code{eww-back-url}) you go
-to the previous URL. You can go forward again with @kbd{r}
+to the previous URL@. You can go forward again with @kbd{r}
(@code{eww-forward-url}). If you want an overview of your browsing
history press @kbd{H} (@code{eww-list-histories}) to open the history
buffer @file{*eww history*}. The history is lost when EWW is quit.
If you want to remember websites you can use bookmarks.
+@vindex eww-history-limit
+ Along with the URLs visited, EWW also remembers both the rendered
+page (as it appears in the buffer) and its source. This can take a
+considerable amount of memory, so EWW discards the history entries to
+keep their number within a set limit, as specified by
+@code{eww-history-limit}; the default being 50. This variable could
+also be set to @code{nil} to allow for the history list to grow
+indefinitely.
+
+@cindex PDF
+ PDFs are viewed inline, by default, with @code{doc-view-mode}, but
+this can be customized by using the mailcap (@pxref{mailcap,,,
+emacs-mime, Emacs MIME Manual})
+mechanism, in particular @code{mailcap-mime-data}.
+
@findex eww-add-bookmark
@findex eww-list-bookmarks
@kindex b
(@code{eww-list-bookmarks}). This will open the bookmark buffer
@file{*eww bookmarks*}.
+@findex eww-list-buffers
+@kindex S
+@cindex Multiple Buffers
+ To get summary of currently opened EWW buffers, press @kbd{S}
+(@code{eww-list-buffers}). The @file{*eww buffers*} buffer allows to
+quickly kill, flip through and switch to specific EWW buffer.
+
@findex eww-browse-with-external-browser
@vindex shr-external-browser
@vindex eww-use-external-browser-for-content-type
variables @code{shr-color-visible-distance-min} and
@code{shr-color-visible-luminance-min} to get a better contrast.
+@cindex Desktop Support
+@cindex Saving Sessions
+ In addition to maintaining the history at run-time, EWW will also
+save the partial state of its buffers (the URIs and the titles of the
+pages visited) in the desktop file if one is used. @xref{Saving Emacs
+Sessions, , emacs, The GNU Emacs Manual}.
+
+@vindex eww-desktop-remove-duplicates
+ EWW history may sensibly contain multiple entries for the same page
+URI@. At run-time, these entries may still have different associated
+point positions or the actual Web page contents.
+The latter, however, tend to be overly large to preserve in the
+desktop file, so they get omitted, thus rendering the respective
+entries entirely equivalent. By default, such duplicate entries are
+not saved. Setting @code{eww-desktop-remove-duplicates} to nil will
+force EWW to save them anyway.
+
+@vindex eww-restore-desktop
+ Restoring EWW buffers' contents may prove to take too long to
+finish. When the @code{eww-restore-desktop} variable is set to
+@code{nil} (the default), EWW will not try to reload the last visited
+Web page when the buffer is restored from the desktop file, thus
+allowing for faster Emacs start-up times. When set to @code{t},
+restoring the buffers will also initiate the reloading of such pages.
+
+@vindex eww-restore-reload-prompt
+ The EWW buffer restored from the desktop file but not yet reloaded
+will contain a prompt, as specified by the
+@code{eww-restore-reload-prompt} variable. The value of this variable
+will be passed through @code{substitute-command-keys} upon each use,
+thus allowing for the use of the usual substitutions, such as
+@code{\[eww-reload]} for the current key binding of the
+@code{eww-reload} command.
