Bookmark Search Extension

Search for bookmarks and quickly navigate to them using the omnibox (the address bar) easily!

Type the keyword \"bm\", which is shortened from the word \"bookmark\", tab/space and start typing!

It can support JavaScript bookmarklets by enabling the corresponding option in the options page.

This extension is open-sourced, available at GitHub: https://github.com/alvinhochun/chrome-bookmark-search

Changelog
========
== 1.4.3 (2018-08-19) ==
- Fix the bookmark page search link on more recent Chrome versions. (Thanks nbegley for the patch.)
- Fix a typo. (Thanks nbegley for the patch.)

== 1.4.2.1 (2013-08-09) ==
- Pressing arrow keys or switching windows could cause automatic matches (first match item) to be forgotten. Some code has been modified to prevent this from happening. (Thanks northtea for pointing it out)

== 1.4.2 (2013-07-11) ==
- JavaScript bookmarklets now requires a lesser permission. If you had enabled JavaScript bookmarklets before, you'll need to re-enable it.
- You may now choose where bookmarks are opened with the keyboard. The option is available in the options page. With this option, you can open bookmarks on a new foreground tab by pressing Alt + Enter, or on a new background tab by clicking on an item with the middle mouse button.
- Fixed a minor bug which sometimes causes the wrong page to be opened.

== 1.4.1 (2013-03-07) ==
- Made the searching algorithm selection option more clearer.
- Added a page to test different searching algorithm.

== 1.4 (2013-02-27) ==
- Implemented a new searching and sorting algorithm which should give better and more useful results in general.

== 1.3.4 (2013-02-20) ==
- Removed an optional permission which is no longer needed.
- Changed the way of informing version updated.

== 1.3.3 (2013-02-19) ==
- Changed the bookmark manager's page back to chrome://bookmarks/ (which I forgot to change in 1.3.2).
- Changed the way of invoking JavaScript bookmarklet due to some security concern.

== 1.3.2 (2013-02-19) ==
- Slightly improved the options page.
- The extension will now ask you to enable JavaScript bookmarklet support when attempt to use one.
- Minor code changes produces slight unnoticeable performance increase.
- Chrome will now unload this extension when not being used, so it will not consume any system resources when idle.

== 1.3 (2012-07-12) ==
- (internal) Switched to manifest version 2.
- The persist permission to \"your data on all websites\" and \"your tabs and browsing activity\" is removed. Instead an option is added for enabling support for JavaScript bookmarklet. The related permissions will be requested only when the option is enabled.
- A bug that prevents automatically navigating to the only match when the option \"Automatically selects full match on name\" is disabled is fixed.

== 1.2.2 (2011-09-14) ==
- Javascript bookmarks had never worked before due to lack of permission. This version should have fixed it.

== 1.2.1 (2011-09-13) ==
- Due to my carelessness, a full match will pops out both the selected page and the bookmark search page. This is likely fixed.
- Automatically selects if there is only one search result.
- Allow setting the maximum items to show.
- The option page should work fine.
- Some minor improvements.

== 1.2 (2011-09-12) ==
- Bookmark Search can now automatically select the full match. (see Options)
- Display is improved. It now shows both name and address.
- Some minor improvements.
- The icons are updated, although they are still...

== 1.1 (2011-03-05) ==
- Changed the keyword from \"bookmark\" to \"bm\"!

== 1.0 (2011-02-28) ==
- First release!

Prasannjeet Singh (ID: 000000d742b22526) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 09/29/2022 It's a good idea, but there is a scope for improvement. 1. Search shows only a few suggestions, so the user might think these are the only search results. Please show more results if possible. 2. The search algorithm is very weak. For example, if my bookmark is saved as "Run Docker commands in Rancher", if I search for "Docker Rancher" it will still not show me the result. This effectively makes the extension very less useful, since no one remembers the exact phrase of their bookmarks, unless they just want to search using just one word.
