Well... it does what it says. It needs a Maximize button, so you can enlarge the pop-up (maybe as default). And, it needs a button to open in a user's default text editor.

It would be better if the pop up was the same width/height of the browser window. Otherwise, it is a good replacement for what I had been using, which does not longer works in Windows 10, unfortunately. I really liked that one because it worked quickly (as does this) and showed the source in a tab, which makes it "full size". Also, the previous extension used the same "Find" as Chrome uses in it's regular tabs, so you can keep clicking to find the next instance. Since this is the only extension to show current source I've found that works with Windows 10 and shows the line numbers, I will use it, but it's not very user friendly.
