Jumanji and Zathura

Yes, they are both movie names. Jumanji was OK, never saw Zathura- although it just looked like the writers said “Wouldn’t it be cool if we cool if Jumanji had been done as a space game?”

But I digress- they are also most excellent pieces of software. Jumanji is another one of those minimalistic browsers along the lines of uzbl and surf. Zathura is a pdf viewer which I think capable of replacing xpdf. Both applications are very fast and very configurable and both seem to handle the majority of use cases for myself.

My only warning is that the documentation is a little thin. Both can be downloaded from the appropriately acronymed pwmt.org where you can either use git or download tarballs. If you’re wondering about the acronym thingy, you’ll have to pay the site a quick visit.
