Here's the link to the relevant Vimperator documentation page, which explains it pretty well: http://vimperator.org/help/vimperator/map.xhtml

Keys can be mapped in four distinct modes:

Normal mode: When browsing normally

Visual mode: When selecting text with the cursor keys

Insert mode: When interacting with text fields on a website

Command-line mode: When typing into the Vimperator command line

In direct answer to your title:

no refers to mappings that are used when in normal mode

cno refers to mappings that are used when in command-line mode

ino refers to mappings that are used when in insert mode
