Google Reader - Mark Until Current As Read v 1.2

Just press Shift+Y and mark all unread entries upto the current entry as read in Google Reader, Shift+I for all entries below the current entry.

This script allows you to mark all unread entries upto the current entry as read in Google Reader.

Many a times, we just skim through the entries and find some entry to be interesting. We read it, but then we have a lot of unread entries above the current entry. How do we mark all of these as read? 'Mark all as read' cannot be used, since there are still a lot of entries to look at below the current one.

This script is the solution.

Press 'Shift+Y' and all unread entries upto the current entry are marked as read.
Press 'Shift+I' and all unread entries below the current entry are marked as read.

It's that simple!

This also works with search results in Google Reader.

v 1.1 - The script now moves back to the current entry after marking all previous ones as read.

v 1.2 - Changed the keyboard shortcut as 'Shift+U' used to clash with the toggle of the side-bar (full-screen mode) - changed to 'Shift+Y'. Also added a feature to mark all entries below the current entry as read. Keyboard shortcut - 'Shift+I'.

Jun 18, 2008 Dapxin User	thx! works and rocks in Opera 9.5

May 9, 2008 evaristo User	It works perfectly! Thanks Gautham

May 8, 2008 Gautham Pai Script's author	Aditya, evaristo: Implemented your requests. Thanks, Gautham

May 7, 2008 Gautham Pai Script's author	Hello Aditya, Thanks. The issue is not to get until the present item. The issue is to know if the present item was open or not when you pressed Shift + U so that we can return to the exact state. Anyway, I will see if that can be done.

May 5, 2008 Aditya Banerjee Scriptwright	Thanks for the useful script. Just what I've been looking for. It seems that the script marks the unread items as read and stops at the last unread item, rather than returning to the item that was selected earlier. Might be a bit tricky to implement, but it would be good to return to the item that was selected.

Apr 30, 2008 Gautham Pai Script's author	Update: There are some bugs in Spencer's script. So you can use this script for now.

Apr 27, 2008 Gautham Pai Script's author	Spencer Thiel has an updated script here: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25522

Apr 25, 2008 evaristo User	#000000hA7: Thanks.

Apr 25, 2008 #000000hA7 User	evaristo: just sort items by oldest or newest (Folder settings...)

Apr 23, 2008 Spencer Thiel Scriptwright	Great script. I use list view to read items though and the current script pops open items to mark them as read. I used a bit of this code to create a new script which will mark items as read without opening them first: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25522

Apr 20, 2008 Gautham Pai Script's author	Will do that soon evaristo. Thanks.

Apr 19, 2008 evaristo User	I usually read the older items first, so I would like an option to mark all entries older than the current as read, i.e., the opposite of what the script does now (Mark All From Current As Read).

Apr 10, 2008 Gautham Pai Script's author	Thanks Osias. Will do that.
