vim inspired shortcuts for your browser by @h43z.
Many browser extensions have permissions that grant them full access to every website you visit and often they need to. And so does this one.
BUT this extension only has 90 (not anymore, soowwy) lines of code that everyone can check and verify for themselves.
Extend it if you need more functionality.
Shortcut list
// content-script.js
j => scroll down
k => scroll up
h => go back one page in history (if end reached closes tab)
l => go forward one page in history
t => reopen last closed tab
w => close tab
Escape => remove focus from active element
G => go to bottom of page
gg => go to top of page
r => reload tab
Enter => click on selected text (useful for / and CTRL+f search)
i => focus next Input element
n => focus tab to the right (next)
p => focus tab to the left (previous)
// background-script.js
// this functionality needs the browser extension API.
// Only so called background scripts have access to it.
w => close tab
t => reopen last closed tab
To disable jkscroll for a specific website create a localStorage item with the
name of jkdisable and some truthy value.
Run sh create-extension.sh and install jk-extension.zip manually in your
browsers addons/extension section.
So far the commands in background-script won't work in google-chrome.
Replace the browser keyword with chrome and change the code from using
promises into callbacks. That should do the trick.
