The script contains three keyboard shortcuts:

1) Pressing comma, "," in list view will mark the currently selected item as read and then selects the next item. Basically the equivalent of pressing "m" followed by "n" using the existing reader keyboard shortcuts.

2) Pressing "shift-U" will mark all items above and including the currently selected item as read. The equivalent of pressing "p" until you return to the begging of the list followed by "m" and "n" until you return to the current item.

3) Pressing "shift-I" will mark all items below and including the currently selected item as read. This is useful if you read items sorted by oldest instead of newest.

These shortcuts can be easily changed to whatever you want (except currently existing Google Reader shortcuts).

This script uses ideas and code from Google Reader - Mark All Until Current As Read.
