Nov 14, 2008 10:43am alala Scriptwright	Thanks Gautham for supplying the modified code. It works perfectly! I'm a happy man. Ha! Congrats for getting your script featured in LH. It's great to know that more people will benefit from your script since it'll be included into LH's Better Google Reader Firefox extension. Btw, perhaps you want to use the CTRL-ALT hotkeys for your LH-version so that the it doesn't interfere with the email feature. Once again, thanks for sharing such a great script with the rest of the world. Kudos! :)

Nov 9, 2008 6:01pm Gautham Pai Script's Author	This script was recently featured on Lifehacker.

Nov 9, 2008 5:59pm Gautham Pai Script's Author	Hi Alala, I am not sure if people will like it so I am giving you the code to use the Ctrl and Alt modifiers. Please replace the existing keyPressEvent function in the script with this one: `function keyPressEvent(event){ var kcode = (event.keyCode)?event.keyCode:event.which; var ctrlKeyPressed =event.ctrlKey; var altKeyPressed =event.altKey; var k = String.fromCharCode(kcode); if(ctrlKeyPressed && altKeyPressed && (k == 'y' \|\| k == 'Y')){ markUntilCurrentAsRead(); } else if(ctrlKeyPressed && altKeyPressed && (k == 'i' \|\| k == 'I')){ markAfterCurrentAsRead(); } }` You now have to press Ctrl+Alt+Y and Ctrl+Alt+I for the actions. I would have kept it simple with only Ctrl or Alt modifiers and not both, but unfortunately there are chances that this will clash with existing functions.

Nov 3, 2008 9:38am alala Scriptwright	Thanks Gautham for pointing to the code. However, that would only be changing the key and it doesn't allow the detection of CTRL or ALT. Nonetheless, thanks. :)

Nov 2, 2008 4:20pm Gautham Pai Script's Author	Hi Alala, Right now there is no simple way to change it. But here is what you can do: Right click the GM icon -> Go to Manage User Scripts... Select the Google Reader - Mark Until Current As Read script and click on Edit. Look for this section: `if(k == 'Y'){ markUntilCurrentAsRead(); } else if(k == 'I'){ markAfterCurrentAsRead(); }` Edit as required. Thanks, Gautham

Oct 30, 2008 8:02am alala Scriptwright	Shift Y and U interfere with the email composition. How do I change it to Ctrl Y and U instead? Or would you be changing it, or providing user customisation? Thank you! :)

Oct 22, 2008 8:20am itairaz Scriptwright	Just what the doctor ordered!! Thanks.

Oct 22, 2008 8:15am Sylvain Comte Scriptwright	cool script, could be very useful for big reading list. But the name of the script is not so good : your script doesn't mark as read, it does read the entries (by opening them all). It is slightly different, particularly if you are using trends (http://www.google.com/reader/view/?page=trends) to keep your reading lists up to date... About AideRss compatibility, you might have noticed you don't have to disable AideRSS in GreaseMonkey : unchecking PostRank filtering is enough.d

Sep 28, 2008 8:15am alala Scriptwright	Thanks for the script. It works for me. I've found out that if the PostRank Filtering of "AideRSS Google Reader Integration" Greasemonkey script is enabled, this script will not work. Fyi. :) Btw, a suggestion... if you can mark them as read without having to open the item first, that'll be great. :)

Sep 7, 2008 7:20pm Gautham Pai Script's Author	I just tried the latest script and it seems to work for me. I am using the same version of Opera. Can you verify that the script is still in the directory pointed to by "User Javascript files" option? Thanks, Gautham

Aug 21, 2008 1:06am Dapxin User	I use opera 9.52 and Shift+Y doesnt seem to do anything unlike before Thx.

Aug 20, 2008 8:03pm Gautham Pai Script's Author	Can you describe the problem and browser?

Aug 19, 2008 11:22pm Dapxin User	This seems to have broken. Can anyone confirm pleasE ?

Jun 23, 2008 11:58am Gautham Pai Script's Author	Wow! This is cool. Thanks Dapxin. I wasn't even aware that Opera has started supporting GM. -Gautham

Jun 18, 2008 2:28am Dapxin User	thx! works and rocks in Opera 9.5

May 9, 2008 2:51am evaristor User	It works perfectly! Thanks Gautham

May 8, 2008 4:56pm Gautham Pai Script's Author	Aditya, evaristo: Implemented your requests. Thanks, Gautham

May 7, 2008 4:40am 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 10:43am 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 11:50pm 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 6:40am Gautham Pai Script's Author	Spencer Thiel has an updated script here: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25522

Apr 25, 2008 5:17pm evaristor User	#000000hA7: Thanks.

Apr 25, 2008 9:11am #000000hA7 User	evaristo: just sort items by oldest or newest (Folder settings...)

Apr 23, 2008 6:53pm 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
