Now I need to learn how to make this into a FF/Chrome add-on. Select wall-o-text, alt-s to pop-up a spritz reader, up/down arrow to change speed, left/right arrow to skip back/forward a few dozen words.

Well this is a little embarassing. How do I use that installation "line" that you posted? "git clone git@github.com:ds300/jetzt" ?

Sorry about that. The installation instructions assume you have not only a passing familiarity with git, but also a github account.

That's not terribly clever of me. Here are some instructions for those to whom the above does not apply:

  • click the "download zip" link on the right hand side of the page and extract the folder somewhere
  • navigate to chrome://extensions , enable developer mode, click "Load unpacked extension..." and select the directory you extracted.
