NAME
kristall - a cross-platform graphical small-internet client.
SYNOPSIS
kristall [FLAGS]... [URL]
DESCRIPTION
kristall is a small-Internet browser primarily designed for browsing geminispace, but also
supports gopher, finger, and basic HTTP/S. It tries to fill the hole of graphical
browsers for these alternative Internet protocols, with a high usability, feature
richness, and somewhat familiar interface for newcomers.
FLAGS
-h, --help
Displays help information
-v, --version
Displays version information
-w, --new-window
Opens URL in a new window if another Kristall session is already running (instead
of opening a new tab).
-i, --isolated
Starts the instance of Kristall as an isolated session that cannot communicate with
other Kristall windows.
The main interface of Kristall consists of three parts:
* the navigation bar on top,
* the content view in the center
* and the status bar on the bottom
### Navigation bar
In the navigation bar, you have some buttons and your URL bar.
You can enter any supported URL in the URL bar, press Return and Kristall will then load
the page in the content view. You usually need to specify the url scheme to navigate to a
specific site, but you can omit the gemini:// prefix for gemini pages. If you enter a URL
with no scheme, and it looks like a URL (e.g "tilde.pink"), Kristall will assume that it
is in fact a gemini URL. If you enter something in the URL bar that doesn't look like a
URL (e.g "i like dogs"), it will be assumed a search query, and will be forwarded to the
search engine that is set in the Settings.
The two buttons on the left of the navigation bar that give you the ability to navigate
back and forth in your browsing history. The button with the round arrow is the refresh
button and allows you to reload the currently displayed site. While a site is loading, it
is replaced with the stop button (square icon) that allows you to cancel the current
request. Tip: Some additional buttons can also be enabled in the settings, to quickly
navigate to the home page, and even the 'root' and 'parent' of the current URL! (See
Additional Toolbar Items in Settings)
On the right side of the URL bar you will find two buttons:
* The button with the small heart icon in it will add or remove this page to your
favourites, this can be done as well by pressing Ctrl-D. When the heart on the button is
filled, the site is contained in your favourites. If not, the heart has only a outline
display. Clicking this button will open a small menu to allow you to quickly place the
favourite in a folder of your choosing (by default 'Unsorted'). You can press Return in
this menu to quickly affirm the options displayed in it.
* The button with the shield icon toggles the use of client certificates. Pressing it when
no client certificate is enabled, a dialog will pop up asking you to select or create a
certificate. When a certificate is enabled, the button will have a filled shield with a
small lock in it. Pressing the button now will disable the currently used certificate.
Note that if you're using a transient certificate, Kristall will ask you a safety question
before destroying the certificate.
### Content view
The content view renders the requested document. For hypertext documents (i.e gemtext,
markdown, etc), you get a nicely rendered version of those documents, other text files are
displayed in monospace. Audio and video files are played in a small built-in media player
that allows you to play/pause the media, scroll around in the time line and mute/unmute
audio. Images are rendered in an interactive view where you can drag the image around and
zoom in/out with the mouse wheel.
Documents that can't be rendered will be displayed with file size and mime type, so you
can save them to disk and open the files with another program.
Right-clicking in the content view will produce a menu which allows you to copy text,
navigate back/forward in history, and copy or open links which are being hovered over. If
you right click a HTTP/S link you will also see an option "Open with external web browser"
which allows you to open these pages in your default WWW browser.
### Status bar
The status bar displays auxiliary information:
On the left, you can see the link target when you hover a link. On the right, you can see
the document size, time needed to load the document and the mime type of the content. This
is especially important when Kristall is not able to render the document nicely. A
"(cached)" indicator will appear to the left of the mime type, indicating that the page
has been read from cache.
## Menus
This chapter explains what each menu button does. I hope that most stuff isn't surprising
😉
### File
New Tab will open a new tab to surf.
New Window will open a new window to browse in.
Save as allows you to save the currently displayed file to your disk.
Close Tab will close the current tab. Does the same as clicking the small (×) button on
the tab itself.
Manage Certificates will bring up a dialog that allows you to create, delete or change
client certificates.
Settings will open a dialog that helps you configure Kristall to your likings.
Quit will close Kristall.
### Navigation
This menu contains means to navigate the internet.
Go to home will navigate your current tab to your home page.
Backward will navigate one page back in your history.
Foreward will navigate one page foreward in your history.
Root will take you to the root directory of the current site. e.g if you are currently at
gemini://example.com/gemlog/some-document.gmi, you will be taken to gemini://example.com/
Parent will take you to the 'parent' directory of the current site. e.g if you are at
gemini://example.com/parent/some-document.gmi, you will be taken to
gemini://example.com/parent/
Refresh will reload the current page. This may be necessary for CGI scripts or other
interactive content.
Add to favourites will add or remove the current page to/from your list of favourites.
### View
This menu allows you to show/hide dockable dialogs.
Document Outline toggles the document outline. Documents with text/gemini get an automatic
outline generation that can be used to navigate larger documents quicker. If you're
reading this help document inside of Kristall, this is a good place to try this feature
out!
Favourites opens a dock containing a list of all your favourite (a.k.a bookmarked) sites.
Open your favourites into a new tab by double-clicking or pressing Return on the entries.
If you right click on an entry you will be presented with a menu in which you can edit the
name or location of the entry, or delete it. Right-clicking in the window (not on an
entry, not on a group) will allow you to create a new "group" of entries. Right clicking
on a group will allow you to rename the group, or recursively delete it (be careful!).
History shows the surfing history of the current tab. Double-clicking an entry navigates
back and forth in your history without disturbing the list.
### Help
This menu contains some stuff that provides help or information about Kristall.
Help displays the help manual (this document).
Changelog will open a document that lists the changes in Kristall in a bulleted list.
About shows a dialog with some information about Kristall.
About Qt shows a dialog containing legal information about the Qt version used.
## Settings
Kristall offers a vast amount of settings. You can style the documents to your liking,
changing fonts and colors. You can also fine-tune the behaviour of Kristall to match your
likings and keep track of your trusted pages. Please note that Kristall has been designed
mostly for browsing geminispace, thus many of these settings are specific or exclusive to
Gemini only.
### Generic
This tab contains an unsorted list of settings that allow you to tweak Kristalls
behaviour.
Start Page is the URL to the page that will be loaded for new tabs and windows. Default is
about:favourites.
Search Engine is the search engine to use when typing non-URLs in the URL bar. A handful
of Gemini search engines are provided as a drop-down. If you would like to specify your
own, specify it in a format similar to the following:
gemini://example.com/search?%1
Note the "%1" at the end of the URL. This is where search queries will be inserted. This
must be provided in order for Kristall to work with the search engine correctly. Be aware
that search engine URLs can vary. For example, a different search engine may appear like
so:
gemini://example2.com/search/another/%1
Additional Toolbar Items contains various additional toolbar items which some may find
useful.
* Home button opens the configured home page in the current tab.
* New tab button appears to the right of the tab bar. This simply adds a new tab to the
current window.
* Root button takes you to the root directory of the current site. (See Menus>Navigation
section for explanation of what this does).
* Parent button takes you to the parent directory of the current site. (See
Menus>Navigation section for explanation of what this does).
UI Theme controls whether the Qt interface is displayed in a dark or a light theme.
Selecting Light or Dark will use the provided Qt light/dark themes. OS Default will use
your system theme.
Icon Theme controls the specific icon set that the Qt interface will use. Usually, the
default Auto option should be good enough, however for those using the OS Default UI
theme, this option may be useful.
UI Density controls the margin of the toolbar buttons.
* Compact has a very low margin
* Classic has the original big margin
Enabled Protocols allows you to fine-tune which protocols are fetched by Kristall. By
default, only Gemini is enabled, all other protocols are disabled. Disabled protocols are
either not served, and produce an error message, or are forwarded to your OS handler for
that URL scheme.
Unknown Scheme changes the behaviour how Kristall handles unknown/disabled URL schemes.
Use OS default handler will invoke your OS default, Display error message will just pop up
a message box and tell you that Kristall cannot handle this URL.
Max. Number of Redirections is a setting that allows you to restrict sites to redirect you
only a certain number of times before erroring out. Setting this to 0 will disable
redirections completely, displaying an error with the target URL.
Redirection Handling allows you to fine-tune the way Kristall allows redirections. Each of
the options defines if Kristall should ask you to allow the redirect or do it silently.
Ask for cross-scheme redirection will pop up a message box if a host tries to redirect you
from one URL scheme to another, e.g. when a web server redirects you from HTTP to HTTPS.
Ask for cross-host redirection will pop up the message box for all redirections through
host boundaries, e.g. when example.com redirects you to www.example.com. Ask for cross-
scheme or cross-host redirection will enable both of the previous behaviours, asking when
any cross-boundary redirection happens. Ask for all redirections will pop up a message box
every time a server tries to redirect you, keeping you in full control over all
redirections. Silently redirect everything is the exact oppositve of that, accepting all
redirections without warning or notice.
Network Timeout is the time a server is allowed to not respond anything before a error
message appears. As long as a server dripples some bytes to Kristall, no timeout will
happen, so having a slow or bad connection shouldn't yield timeouts.
### Display
This tabs contains tweaks you can apply to the display behaviour. Change text effects or
rendering of documents.
Render emojis allows you to toggle whether to render emojis using installed emoji fonts.
Disabling this can help prevent text rendering issues due to emojis. Note that emojis are
only supported in Kristall builds with Qt 5.13 or later.
URL bar highlights sets whether the URL bar should use "fancy" highlights. The
highlighting simply makes the domain of the site more prominent/visible, and the text
around it slightly dimmed. This is purely a cosmetic feature.
Text Rendering allows one to control whether Kristall parses text input files or not. This
is usually set to Fancy which renders text/html, text/gemini, text/markdown and
text/gophermap to a nice, hyperlinked display. When set to Always plain text, Kristall
will display all text/* files as plaintext files instead. This may be inconvenient, but
necessary for misparsed sites.
Use typographer's quotes sets whether to replace regular quotation marks, that is:
"these", and 'these'
with fancy Unicode quotes, which include the following:
“these”, and ‘these’
This is a purely cosmetic feature that may aid in readability.
ANSI Escape Sequences determines the method of handling ANSI escape codes. This allows a
document to alter some of the format (colour, etc) of text.
* Ignore ignores ANSI sequences and leaves them in the text. This option will often create
eyesores out of pages that have fancy ANSI art!
* Interpret (preformatted text only) will allow Kristall to interpret ANSI escape
sequences in preformatted text blocks.
* Strip is a hybrid of the above. It strips ANSI sequences from the text, and displays the
text normally, as if the escape sequences were not there.
Enable text highlights allows you to enable bolding and underlining in text/gemini
documents. Bolding **like this** also works.
Gopher Map allows you to chose a modern iconized style for gopher maps or, if you are an
old schooler, just use a textual description of the item types in the map.
Hidden files in file:// directories determines whether hidden files will display in local
directory listings (i.e file:// URLs which do not point to a specific document but rather
a directory).
Strip <nav> from HTML pages allows you to remove the <nav> tag from HTML pages. This might
make certain pages more readable, others completely unusable.
### Cache
Kristall employs a small cache system that makes forward/backward navigation much quicker.
This tab provides controls to tweak the caching behaviour.
Total cache size limit sets the total amount of memory that can be used by Kristall to
cache pages. By default this is set to 500 KiB, but can be set to 0 to completely disable
the caching system. The larger this number is, the more memory you are allowing Kristall
to use.
Cached item size threshold is the maximum size of a single cached item. By default this is
set to 400 KiB. This prevents Kristall from caching any pages that are large from clogging
up the in-memory cache.
Cached item life is the amount of time in minutes before a single cached item is
considered "expired." When a cached item is "expired", it is not read from cache, but
instead re-retreived from the server. Cache life can be disabled by enabling the Unlimited
item life option. Note: Cached item life is only recommended if you desperately want to
keep your memory usage to a minimum, otherwise, having Unlimited item life is usually a
great convenience, and due to the usually very small size of pages in geminispace,
gopherspace, etc - it doesn't require much memory.
### Style
In this tab, you can customise the document rendering in Kristall. The left pane contains
a vast array of options to tweak, and the right pane displays a preview of your currently-
selected style.
Many items in the Style category have either a Font, Color, or both buttons. Click these
to change the respective value.
Background Color is the color that fills the empty space in a document.
Standard Font allows you to change the font that is used for all non-preformatted and non-
heading text. Choose the color and font family/size/style.
Preformatted Font is the font and text color that is used for all <pre> tags in HTML or
preformatted blocks in text/gemini. This should be a monospace font, otherwise ASCII art
will break horribly. Note to MacOS X users: "Andale Mono" is a good font choice here.
H1 Font allows you to change the font and color for primary headings in documents.
H2 Font allows you to change the font and color for secondary headings in documents.
H3 Font allows you to change the font and color for ternary headings in documents.
Blockquote Font allows you to change the font and colour for blockquotes in documents.
Local Link Color is the color in which links that refer to the same host and protocol are
rendered.
Foreign Link Color is the color in which links that refer to another host, but the same
protocol are rendered. This helps to recognize when you change the content provider with a
link.
Cross-Scheme-Color is used for all links that change protocol. For example: If you are
currently visiting a gemini-served page and are referred to a page in gopher space, this
color will be used. This gives you more control over your surfing experience.
Local Link Prefix is a small string that is placed before a link to the same host.
Extern Link Prefix is a small string that is placed before a link to a different host.
Block Quote Color is the background color that allows you to highlight block quotes.
Auto-Theme Generation is an experimental feature that can be set to Disabled, Light Theme
and Dark Theme. When not set to Disabled, Kristall will ignore all your beautiful color
settings and tries to create a color scheme based on the current pages host name. This
allows different styles for each host visited and brings some recognizability in gemini
and gopher space.
Left/right Page Margin is the distance of horizontal page content to the left/right
borders. If you have Enable text width limit enabled this value is only used when the
window size is less than the set maximum text width.
Top/bottom Page Margin is the distance of vertical page content to the top/bottom borders.
Other options are a set of extra options to enhance your reading experience (and just look
cool in general).
* Justify text will make text fill the lines they are on. Note that this only works on
gemtext pages.
* Centre first H1 will centre-align the first top-level heading in gemtext pages. This can
look really cool with Text width limit enabled!
Text width limit sets the maximum line length of text. By default this is set to 900px. If
the window itself is smaller in width than the text width limit, the text width limit is
"adjusted" to fit inside the window. As mentioned above, horizontal margins will also be
applied here. The Enabled checkbox to the right of this option toggles whether this option
is enabled or not. (Enabled by default)
Line height (paragraph) is an additional spacing between paragraph text lines. By default
this is set to 5px, and can help with readability. (Gemtext-only feature)
Line height (header) is an additional spacing between header text lines. By default this
is set to 5px. (Gemtext-only feature)
Indentation is a set of options that control the level of indent in certain text parts in
Gemini pages.
* Par controls indent size of paragraphs (default: 1)
* Hea controls indent size of headings (default: 0)
* Quo controls indent size of blockquotes (default: 1)
* Lst controls indent size of unordered lists (default: 2)
Indent Size is the size in pixels of a single indent. This affects how much of an effect
the above Indentation settings have on the layout (default 15).
List item marker simply lets you set what symbol is used in list items. By default this is
set to Filled Circle.
Presets is a cool feature to save, restore and share your color themes. The dropdown
contains a list of all previously created colors schemes. With the + button you can create
a scheme with a unique name. The floppy disk button will override the currently selected
preset with all the settings displayed above. The folder button will restore a previously
saved preset. The last two buttons allow you to import/export presets to disk and share
them with your friends! Share all your beautiful color schemes with the world!
The lone text with with the host.name text in it can be used to preview some auto-
generated themes. It only refreshes the preview and seeds the auto generator with a new
host name.
### Gemini TLS and HTTPS TLS
These two sites contain the TLS settings for either Gemini or HTTPS. Both protocols are
handled in the same way, but with different data sets, so each one has its own settings
page.
Trust Level defines how you trust hosts. Trust on first encounter is also known as Trust
On First Use (or TOFU) and will store the servers public key in Kristalls database of
trusted hosts. If a host is later encountered that has changed its public key, an error
will be displayed to the user that this host may be compromised (as the changing of a
public key can be a man-in-the-middle attack). Trust everything will just happily accept
every TLS server, ignoring the certificate issuer completely. Manually verify fingerprints
allows you to chose whether you trust a server or not based on its fingerprint. This will
be displayed in the error page as well as the option to add that server to your list of
trusted hosts.
Certificate Authorities allows you to enable/disable the use of your systems CA trust
store. Sites that can be enabled via the CA system will not be added to the list of
trusted hosts (as it is only meant for TOFU/manual implementation), but will not error
out. Use local certificate authorities will enable that behaviour, Don't use local
certificate authorities will disable it.
Trusted Hosts displays your database of currently trusted hosts for either Gemini or HTTPS
servers. You can see the host name (which is used for identification), the date when you
trusted the server and the type of the key that server is using.
Revoke trust allows you to remove a server from your database. Select a server in the list
and click the button. Kristall will now act as it hasn't ever seen that server before and
will now handle the server as an unknown one.
## Certificate Manager
This dialog allows you to manage your client certificates. There are options to import,
export, delete and create new certificates as well as manage your existing ones.
The window is separated in two halves:
The left half is the overview over your certificates and your available actions.
The right half contains information about the currently selected certificate.
The overview displays your certificates managed in groups. Each certificate is contained
in a group that allows you to structure your certificates better. Good groups for example
is Accounts, Access Token, Games, ... You can move certificates between different groups
by using drag'n'drop. Just click the certificate and drag it over into another group.
When selecting a certificate, its details are displayed on the right side of the screen:
Display Name is the text you will see in the overview on the left and on the smaller
dialog selection screen. You can type in here whatever you want, it's just for you. It's
possible to edit this value.
Common Name is the CN value that was used when creating the certificate. Its used as a
identifier and the only required field when creating the cert. You cannot change this.
Expiration Date is the date when your certificate expires.
Expires in shows the numbe of days until your certificate expires. This may be more
intuitive to work with, but communicating the expiration date is recommended.
Host Filter is a security-measurement to shield you from accidental identity exposure. You
can type in a URL with wildcards, using ? for a single character, * for any number of
characters, including zero and … for allowing a set of certain characters to be matched.
When you try activating the certificate on a URL that does not match your Host Filter,
Kristall will ask you if you really want to enable the certificate. This prevents you from
accidentally using the certificate on a host or URL where it shouldn't be used.
Auto-Enable Certificate is built on top of the Host Filter. When you don't have a client
certificate enabled and you visit a URL that matches the Host Filter property, Kristall
will ask you if you want to enable that certificate. This is convenient when you need a
certificate to visit that location anyways and this allows you to quickly enable your
default certificate.
Fingerprint is the SHA256 fingerprint of this certificate.
Notes is a free-form text field for your private use. Kristall does not use this value
what-so-ever. Use this field to make notes about that certificate.
You can find more information about the wildcard syntax here:
Wildcard Matching: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qregexp.html#qregexp-wildcard-matching
Below the certificate overview are four buttons, described from left to the right:
Create certificate will open up the certificate creation dialog and allows you to create a
new certificate.
Import certificate will open up the certificate i/o dialog. This allows you to import a
existing certificate/key pair, supporting RSA and EC cryptography as well as PEM/DER
encoded files.
Export certificate will open up the certificate i/o dialog. This allows you to export the
currently selected certificate into a certificate/key pair. This allows PEM/DER encoded
files and you should remember/note what kind of format your key has. Exporting allows you
to back up you keys, change to another browser or share them with your friends (don't!).
Delete certificate will delete the currently selected certificate or group. You will get a
security pop-up when deleting a certificate as this is a non-reversable operation (unless
you made a back-up). Deleting empty groups is always allowed without pop-up, deleting non-
empty groups is not allowed.
Using passphrases for importing/exporting certificates is currently not supported.
Please note that changes in this dialog are immediaty applied and there is no way back
when doing an action. This may change in the future, but will stay like this for now.
## Certificate Selection Dialog
This dialog allows you to enable client certificates. It is opened by clicking the shield
button in the navigation bar or it will automatically pop up when a site requests the use
of a client certificate.
In the upper part, this dialog provides you with a list of all your persistent
certificates. If you want to use one of those, select the certificate and click Use. Or
simply double-click a certificate to chose it.
You can also ad-hoc create a new certificate with the click on Create new identity. This
will open up the certificate creation dialog which allows you to create new identities.
On the lower part you can create temporary certificates that have a short lifespan and
will be destroyed as soon as you disable the certificate or close your client.
## Certificate Creation Dialog
This dialog provides means to create a new persistent identity.
Group is the name of the group where this certificate should be stored. You can either
chose an existing group from the drop down or just enter a non-existing name to create a
new group ad-hoc.
Display Name is the title of the certificate that Kristall will show you. It will not be
sent to a server ever.
Common Name is the CN field in the X509 certificate. It's required for identitication to
the hosts.
Expiration Date is the date when your certificate becomes invalid. Kristall choses a
default of "1 year from now on", but you can chose any time you want, even just 30
minutes. Better chose a long time though if you don't know how long you need that
certificate.
With a click on OK, Kristall will create a new certificate and put it in your certificate
store. It can then be selected from the certificate selection dialog or certificate
manager.
## Certificate I/O Dialog
This dialog enables you to import or export certificate-key-pairs into or from Kristall.
Key Type contains the type of your key. If you import, you need to select the correct key
type there, if you export, it will be disabled, but shows the correct type of key for your
identity.
Key File needs to be a full path to either a .der or .pem file where Kristall will
load/store the key from/to.
Certificate File needs to be a full path to either a .der or .pem file where Kristall will
load/store the certificate from/to.

## Protocol support
These protocols are currently supported via their respective URL schemes:
Gemini: https://gemini.circumlunar.space/
HTTP/HTTPS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext_Transfer_Protocol
Gopher: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gopher_(protocol)
Finger: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_protocol
### Gemini
Kristall tries to implement the current feature set of the gemini specification. All
response types of a gemini server are relayed to the user and the user choses when to do
certain actions or not. Redirections are followed automatically, and you will be prompted
depending on your configured Settings.
### Gopher
Kristall provides access to gopherspace and supports most modern/common file types:
* Gophermaps / Directories
* Text
* Sound / Audio / Music
* Images / GIFs
* HTML
* Mirrors
There is currently no support for automatic redirection on URL: resources or
special/oldschool file types like DOS/HexBin/UUencoded data.
### Local file browsing
The file:// scheme can be used to browse local files and directories on your system. (This
feature has not been well-tested on Windows systems)
Browsing to a local directory, such as file:///home/user will create a "directory
listing", with links allowing you to navigate the file structure.
Browsing to an actual file, such as file:///home/user/file.txt will cause Kristall to
attempt to display that file.
### Built-in sites
There is also the scheme about: which can be used to access internal sites for
configuration, usability or help (this is one of them!):
about:blank
about:favourites
about:help
about:updates
about:style-preview
about:style-display
about:cache
## Security Concept
Kristall has some built-in security measures to make your browsing experience safe and
sane.
### Philosophy
Kristall will always try to warn or ask you if anything critical will happen.
Sneakily redirecting you to another host?
You missed disabling your client certficiate when switching hosts?
Kristall will ask you whether you want to keep your current settings and continue or if
you want to disable that feature. These security measures are quite non-intrusive and help
you "not missing the click".
It will also make some artificial hurdles when you can really make something that is
critical, like visiting a host with a mistrusted certificate or deleting your client
certificates.
### Security Measures
* Client certificates will be disabled when doing a host or protocol switch
* Client certificates allow host filtering to double-opt-in for non-planned hosts
* Redirects check for cross-scheme or cross-host redirections.
* Fine-grained customizations
* Trusting TLS connections based on manually built lists, TOFU method or using the
certificate authority system
## Caching
Kristall has an in-memory page caching system enabled by default. This allows for quick
loading of pages that have already been visited. Currently, this cache is cleared when
Kristall is exited.
The caching system is fairly basic; when a page is loaded, it is pushed to the cache (if
it is smaller than Cached item size threshold). If the cache exceeds the Total cache size
limit, the oldest item in the cache is removed. The Cached item life determines how long
this cached pages will be valid for.
When a page is read from cache, it is indicated in the Status Bar, to the left of the mime
type.
If you would like to disable page caching, set the Total cache size limit to 0. See
Settings for more information
## Supported Media Types
