Gmail updated their UI today. Now when I use the Delete keyboard shortcut, I get the following Javascript alert: "Couldn't find the menu header node."

Looks like this script needs to be updated for the new UI changes.

The new changes to gmail today add the ability to label messages as well. At this point many of the features that this script originally did are now handled though gmail and it's labs features. I'm wondering whether it is worth it to keep maintaining it. Thoughts from others would be appreciated.

I haven't received the latest update to gmail yet, but when I do I'll take a look at it. Thanks.

Gmail still doesn't have a "go to label", "remove label", and their shortcut for delete ("#") is annoying compared to this script's convenient "t".

I use these shortcuts all the time and miss them already, so I hope you do update the script! :)

gmail is still certainly lacking.

the new UI breaks my most used command: "," for mark all unread as read. (i'm on a ton of mailing lists which i auto-lable and archive).

thank you for all the fantastic work you've put into this project! i feel like i'm missing an arm when i'm at another computer that doesn't have greasemoneky and this script. hope you continue to work on it, but if not, peace and prosperity in all your future endeavors =)

I use "Mark as read; then archive" a million times a day. Gmail is literally useless w/out this. please dont stop updating :)

I have about 30-40 different addons and scripts. This is one is my favorite of all of them. PLEASE keep updating it. Thank you for all you've done.

Hi,

Firstly, Sewpafly, this is YOUR script, not Google's one, and I, like other I guess, used it daily since a loooooong time ago.

Secondly, I have 916 labels (I counted it for the 1st time today (wow!!) and it is not a one-to-one stupid labeling but due to a professional usage of Gmail) and the script provided by Gmail absolutely sucks with such an amount of labels (the script crashes and freeze FF).

Thirdly, your dark transparent interface is a lot better compare to the simple list by Gmail.

Fourthly, Fifthly,... because we like this script!

Pleaaaaase, keep on updating...
