About this extension
Have a bad touchpad? Trouble using a mouse? Love keyboard shortcuts?

The keyboard shortcuts and hints are fully customizable.
Alt+J: Click links, buttons, etc.
Alt+K: Open link in new tab.
Alt+L: Open link in new tab and switch to it.
Alt+Shift+J: Click many things.
Alt+Shift+K: Open many links.
