I also found configuration confusing earlier, but the following helped me get there (as per my notes on my zathurarc in my $HOME/.config/zathura/zathurarc # http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/oneiric/man5/zathurarc.5.html # # see also http://pwmt.org/projects/zathura/configuration/ # and http://pwmt.org/projects/zathura/options/ # as well as http://pwmt.org/projects/girara/options/ Example: set window-height 1150 set window-width 887 set adjust-open width map <Home> goto top map <End> goto bottom map <PageUp> scroll full-up map <PageDown> scroll full-down map <BackSpace> scroll full-up map r rotate rotate-cw map c rotate rotate-ccw --= One thing I was not able to find is how to get a NextPage key-binding using the PageDown which does not also impact the Spacebar (which by default only pages down the screen, which I would like to keep).
