Great extension! Back in the days of ZX Spectrum and games on tape!

Muy buena idea, sería estupendo si saliesen además las barras amarillas y azules.

Great for a bit of ZX Spectrum nostalgia but also has turned out to be quite useful for seeing if a page has completely loaded or not. I'm hoping the author will add loading sounds (to be off by default).
