inCHROMEnter

Version 0.5.1

Latest downloadable stable version: 0.5.1 as of 3/20/2013. By Monroe Ekilah.

###Welcome to inCHROMEnter! A simple Chrome extension to increment/decrement the URL of the current tab for fast browsing.

###Why I got this idea when going through far too many sequential GitHub issues while grading for a course at my university. I wished there was a faster way to browse the issues than manually editing the URL, which conveniently ends in the issue number.

###Install instructions

• Download the latest downloadable stable version at the link above.
• Drag the ".crx" file into Chrome's Extensions page (Options->Extensions)

###Current features

• Works on any site with the any of the following structures at the end of the URL:
  • /#...#
  • /#...#/
  • /#...#/.cccc where cccc is any extension that is no longer than 4 chars plus the dot before it. (i.e.: .html)
  • For example, try:
    • http://what-if.xkcd.com/15/
    • https://github.com/swcarpentry/2012-11-scripps/blob/master/_static/15.html
    • GitHub issues (the original intention of this project!)
      • Accidentally, this also works great for GitHub organization management, if your organization's teams are lucky enough to be sequentially numbered and/or named :)
• Alt + '+' and Alt + '-' will increment/decrement, in addition to the buttons in the extension popup window.
  • The +/- keys on the numpad and the normal keyboard both work.
• User options page functional!
  • Here, the user can:
    • Select from the available regular expressions
    • NEW: Change default action for padding URL numbers with zeroes when a URL decremented with Alt + '-' and it loses a digit place (i.e. 100->99 or 100->099? Your choice!)
    • Change the default increment/decrement value
