10 badwolf is a minimalist browser that cares about privacy, it is based on
11 WebKitGTK and thus also accepts WebKitGTK (and dependencies) flags and
12 environment variables, unfortunately there doesn't seems to be manpages
13 for theses.
14 Runtime configuration specific to badwolf will probably get added at a
16 later release.

92 ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/badwolf/webkit-web-extensions/
93 Directory containing the WebKitWebExtensions:
94 https://webkitgtk.org/reference/webkit2gtk/stable/WebKitWebExtension.html
95 to be loaded into badwolf. Note: They aren't the JavaScript-based
96 Web-Extensions supported by Firefox or Chrome, but native code in
97 shared objects using the WebKitGTK API.
98 Examples of useful extensions may be found at:
100 https://hacktivis.me/git/badwolf-extensions
101 https://github.com/jun7/wyebadblock
102 ${DATADIR:-/usr/local/share}/badwolf/interface.css
103 ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/badwolf/interface.css
104 CSS files (respectively system and user-level) for styling bad‐
105 wolf interface. See
106 https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/chap-css-properties.html
107 for the properties being available.
108 For testing your styles I would recommend using the
110 GTK_DEBUG=interactive environment variable on launching badwolf
111 and going to the CSS tab.
