Quick Linker Extension

Quick Linker is designed to speed up your browsing by mapping a shortcut to a web URL, much like Firefox's shortcuts for favourites.

Shortcuts are activated by typing the extension keyword, 'gl', then typing your keyword - e.g. 'yt', hitting enter and being taken straight to the linked URL - 'YouTube.com'

Keywords can be added, edited, or removed from the extension options page (in many colours). If you're switching browsers there's an import/export feature to help make that process as simple as possible.

If you're interested in how this extension came to be... I built V1 of this tool for my own benefit, however since trying out Arc browser I realised it doesn't work with Arc's command bar. I looked back at the original code for a way to make it work with Arc when I realised there were some big things that needed to be fixed and so I rebuilt it (almost) from scratch with a new design and some much needed features (including Arc support).

If you enjoy the tool and want to support its maintenance, there's a 'buymeacoffee' link in the options page.

Thanks QL :)
