google-chromekeyboard shortcutsmacos
OS X user here. I'm currently learning both Vim and Vimium, it's been really fun. A major annoyance with Chrome is that I can press Cmd+L to highlight the address bar, but I can't unselect it without clicking on anywhere on the page (and resume to normal navigation). How do I (using the keyboard only) unselect the address bar in Chrome?
P.S. Sorry if this has been asked already. I just cannot find the combination of search terms in Google as what I'm searching for is a bit descriptive
Maybe the SiteLauncher add-on to Firefox will help :
SiteLauncher is an add-on for Firefox that gives you a super-quick way to to open your favorite websites using only your keyboard. One special hotkey brings up the 'Launcher', followed by a unique key to launch a site.
It is claimed that it works correctly for bookmarklets, even if 'Open shortcuts in new tab' is checked.
This is one other way. You can save the entire document as txt file and open it with any browser of yours, tested on chrome or safari. Select all and right click, then "add to itunes as spoken track." It will take a few minutes and then you will have an audio file you can play. Press pause key on the keyboard to pause or resume while reading.

I am not a OS X user, but I think this should be the same as in Windows,press the Tab once or more time after selecting the Chrome address bar with Ctrl+L. In Windows pressing F6 once or more times will deselect the omnibox in chrome, but I don't know if this will work also in OS X, it is worth a try.
