Thank you! The more I can avoid the mouse, the better. Once installed it works great. Not sure if all features were supposed to work on the demo page before installing, HJKL navigation didn't work on Chrome Version 35.0.1916.153 under Ubuntu 12.04

Oh.. yeah, those features will only work after you have installed the extension. I updated the text to clarify that! Thanks

When I was a Chrome user, I used to use Vimum: http://vimium.github.io/

I'm now using Firefox, with VimFx: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/

I'll give this a shot the next time I open Chrome.

Will there be a Firefox port?

I would say 30% chance as it stands now, but depending on total level of interest...!

Is the code available somewhere?

siliconviking5• 12 years ago

Haven't decided that yet actually.. currently no though.

I think this is the sort of lybrary with the potential to go fairly popular on github. -side comment I loved noteZilla btw-. I'm curious about what's keeping you from sharing, do you have a "monetization" strategy?

May I recommend that you consider better integration with github? for example, the 'S' is used to focus the search bar, which still works, github's took higher priority, which is good for me, but WebMotion had assigned the 'S' to another link, needless to say that didn't work.

Hello again Jorge, thanks for your email as well.. sounds like there would need to be some kind of domain specific way to block certain shortcuts....
