// Another keyboard junkie script.  This time for GMail.
// This script enumerates the links in gmail and allows you to
// use keyboard shortcuts to access them.
// The important keys are 'l' and '<0-9>'.
// Click 'l' once to active the commands, and then again to enumerate links
// Clicking 'l-<0-9>' will open up one of the links.
// The script uses GM_openInTab for the links.
