-einfach an" is german and translates roughly to "just show it" (the damn
-web page).

- - Keyword based searching (opening "wi foo" will search wikipedia)
+Running
+-------
-Using zea with tabbed
-=====================
+You simply invoke the main program:
-The order of arguments for zea doesn't matter. This means you can run it
-like this:
+ $ lariza
- $ tabbed -c ./zea file:///home/hans/bookmarks.html -z 0.8 -e
+Refer to the manpage for all options.
-Each new tab will then show your bookmarks and is scaled by a factor of
-0.8.
+Background information
+----------------------
-Adblock
-=======
+ What lariza is and what it's not
-zea has built-in adblock functionality. In each line of
+ lariza does what I need. It won't do other things. I'm open for
+ contributions but please don't be upset if I turn them down -- which
+ might happen if it's a feature that I simply don't need.
- ~/.config/zea/adblock.black
+ lariza does not compete with powerful browsers like dwb or luakit, nor
+ with monstrous applications like Firefox or Chromium.
-you can store a regular expression. These expressions match
-case-insensitive and partially, i.e. ".*foo.*" is the same as ".*FOO.*"
-and you can use anchors like "^https?://...".
+ About the name
+ "lariza" stems from a german sentence:
-Literature
-==========
+ Alle anderen waren mir zu anstrengend.
+ l a r i z a
-API references:
+ That phrase basically means: "It was too tiresome to deal with any
+ other browser." I couldn't find a simple browser that does just what I
+ need. Most of them are utterly bloated, others lack essential
+ functions. Thus, I was forced to write scripts and tools and stuff to
+ deal with these issues. That is what was tiresome. I don't want to
+ work around bugs or nonsensical behavior anymore.

+ So, I wrote my own browser^W WebKit GUI. WebKit does all the dirty
+ work.
