Hidari - Manga & Webtoon Reading Assistant Extension

Hidari is an extension that automatically scrolls the page for you at your preferred pace so you can read manga or webtoons hands-free. When you reach the end, Hidari will load the next chapter for you automatically.

There are lots of sites out there that host manga and webtoon series, but they aren't always easy to use. And sometimes you just want to sit back and relax while you read. Hidari can help!

**NEW VERSION 2.0**
Expanded the range of speed options for comfort and customizability! Added shortcuts for controlling scrolling speed and revamped the extension menu so you can easily change scrolling speed without going to the Options page.
Improved the \"Next Chapter\" functionality so it supports decimal based chapters.

You can control Hidari using keyboard shortcuts or by clicking on the Extension icon.
Keyboard shortcut defaults (change these in your Chrome Settings!):
Scroll/Stop: Cmd-Shift-Space (Mac) or Ctrl-Shift-Space (Windows/Linux)
Next Chapter: Cmd-Shift-Right (Mac) or Ctrl-Shift-Right (Windows/Linux)
Increase Scrolling Speed: Cmd-Shift-Up (Mac) or Ctrl-Shift-Up (Windows/Linux)
Decrease Scrolling Speed: Cmd-Shift-Down (Mac) or Ctrl-Shift-Down (Windows/Linux)

REMOVED SHORTCUTS (Unfortunately Chrome only allows four shortcuts):
Previous Chapter: Cmd-Shift-Left (Mac) or Ctrl-Shift-Left (Windows/Linux)
