How about switching to an eww buffer by title?
So the use case is that you have a large number of eww buffers,
but you
want to find a particular based on the title of the web page
being
displayed in that buffer?
Yes. For me I'm just trying to use eww as my main browser. For
that to happen, I'd need to duplicate the tabs functionality in
firefox, and tabs are identified by titles.
I'm not sure that's generally useful enough to include -- do
people use
`C-u M-x eww' a lot?
I don't know. I assume people who use a graphical browser
generally have more tabs open than I do (I have an addon in my
firefox limiting the number of tabs to 15 by killing LRU tabs),
but I don't know how many eww users use eww as their main browser
and how many have migrated from graphical browsers to eww.
BTW I have a few functions with keybindings spawning new eww
buffers in my init file.
There may also be several buffers with the same title, I guess,
in which
case this wouldn't allow you to choose either?
I think with icomplete it will show all of them in the minibuffer
and you can choose (you can't tell which one is which though, same
as graphical browser tabs). But I haven't tested it without
icomplete - will do.
