NOTE: PLEASE REFRESH YOUR OPEN TABS AFTER THE INSTALLATION FOR THE EXTENSION TO WORK.

This small extension allows you to increase scroll speed on web pages either :

  • by pressing a key of your choice between Left Alt (the default), Right Alt, Left Ctrl and Left Shift
  • or without doing anything : scroll speed will always be increased, and you'll have the ability to decrease it temporarily by pressing one of the keys mentioned above

You'll also be able to configure the new scroll speed through the extension's Settings page.

Quite handy to scroll through long web pages or big documents quickly !
