Graeme Bell (ID: 0000002cd3f9a946) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/12/2023 This is a fantastic Chrome extension, and far exceeded my requirements, whilst not being at all bloated/complex. Most extensions of this nature simply want to let you create Ctrl+C type shortcuts, and said alternatives mostly don't support operating systems other than Windows, require an OS-level helper application, or don't support non-Windows modkeys. This extension permits modal-type keyboard shortcuts (e.g. O P T, one after the other, open options). I wanted an easy way to 1. create a "pin" shortcut, which Chrome lacks (I made this simply "PI"), 2. a "next page" shortcut that clicks link to a page matching "next" text (simply "NE"), and a few custom scripts, which are trivially configurable in this application. I'd pay for this application, fantastic.
