Summary

A Chrome extension to make the webcomic Homestuck (and various unofficial spinoffs such as Vast Error) easier to read by replacing its many UNR34D4BL3 2triing2 0f tttext with more standard English spelling and grammar.

CURRENT VERSION (0.0.0.5) provides support for the Vast Error fan comic only.

##ABOUT## Homestuck is an epic 8000+ page online story told in a combination of text, pictures, video, and even playable in-browser video games.

Homestuck and its spinoffs are known for representing conversations between characters entirely in a faux chat log format. Each character uses their own unique style of typing, ranging from the fairly simple (SHOUTING IN ALL CAPS) to the nearly illegible (R3P74C1NG NUMB3R77 W17H L3773R5 BUT INC0N5151573N7LY). This can make the story challenging for many readers, especially readers with disabilities.

While traditional text replacement extensions do exist, the complexity of many quirks makes it difficult for many users to simply 'search and replace'. Additionally, as replacement needs vary depending on the specific character speaking, global search and replace will not provide the desired outcome.

##Version 0.4 - Vast Error##

  • Automatic, context-aware text replacement for the Vast Error Homestuck spinoff comic on both Vast Error's official site and MS Paint Fan Adventures

Thank you so much for making everyone's text more readable! Without it, I would have missed so many plot points

Thank you for making there be an option to turn character quirks on and off! Lavian is easy to read, but you're right, Murrit is a disaster and his quirk is brutal. Lots of room for additional characters from other comics to be added easily in the future, and very user friendly. Thanks!
