Install How do I use this?

For comments/questions/requests for help.

• See 'h' for list of macros available.
• If your configured keys ever get hosed, you can always go to about:config and reset the "macros" and "selectors" greasemonkey values. I don't think that this should be a problem, it's pretty stable.
• Use keys to navigate the help screen: up/down to change sections, right enters macro section. Use tab to get to next macro, etc.

Case sensitive keys (overrides any gmail shortcuts using that key).

'g' --> 'go to label/quick link'
'l' --> 'apply label'
'L' --> 'remove label'
'N' --> 'create and apply label'
'E' --> 'Mark as read and archive'
'f' --> 'focus: loads all inbox/unread/starred messages 
         in the current label or search'
'i' --> 'move selected messages to inbox'
'T' --> 'Mark as read and move to trash'
'O' --> 'Open all conversations in the current thread
',' --> 'Mark as read, all unread'
'q' --> 'Add quick link'
---
't' --> 'Trash'
'r' --> 'Mark as read'
'R' --> 'Mark as unread'
'e' --> 'archive'
'X' --> 'Select'
    'a' --> 'all'
    'n' --> 'none'
    'r' --> 'read'
    'u' --> 'unread'
    's' --> 'starred'
    't' --> 'unstarred'

Troubleshooting

Gmail & greasemonkey (or firefox extensions) have an interesting relationship. If you reload gmail you'll probably have problems unless you clear your cache first. If you seem to be having problems:

1. close gmail window/tab
2. Clear cache (ctrl-shift-delete)
3. Reload gmail

Tips & Tricks

• 'Z' enables debugging: output is to the console (Tools-> Error Console)
• The ignore option can be used to shift into gmail mode. Add an ignore shortcut then after pressing this key, whatever you press will pass through to gmail. Be careful, the ignore key is not trapped (meaning that you can ignore the next key after performing a macro, or if the ignore key is a gmail shortcut, gmail will do something.
