User reviews

For me, indispensable, and there's nothing else like it. I hope it will continue to work after recent Chrome changes!

This is a great extension, but doesn't quite work correctly on ellipsus.com, which is unfortunately where I mainly want to use it. Every time I start a new paragraph, the cursor jumps behind the first character I type for some reason. Fortunately not too hard to deal with, but still annoying.

Exactly what I wanted for web-based text editors.
