To do this, you'll need to update the config file: change the `"background"` property of the `"follow.start"` action to `true`, e.g.: ```json { "keymaps": { "F": { "type": "follow.start", "newTab": true, "background": true } } } ``` ## Misc - <kbd>y</kbd>: copy the URL of the current tab to the clipboard - <kbd>p</kbd>: open the clipboard's URL in the current tab - <kbd>P</kbd>: open the clipboard's URL in new tab - <kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>Esc</kbd>: enable or disable the add-on in the current tab - <kbd>/</kbd>: start searching for text in the page - <kbd>n</kbd>: find the next search result in the page - <kbd>N</kbd>: find the previous search result in the page - <kbd>g</kbd><kbd>f</kbd>: view the source of the current tab
