Extension summary

This extension won't be maintained further. I'm shelving this project due to lack of interest/utility and too much burden. The addon will remain available for download as long as the store allows, and the source on gitlab (https://gitlab.com/Marnes-group/webextensions) will also remain available to fork. I do have a greasyfork account (https://greasyfork.org/en/users/18593-marnes) and may publish works there in the future. I have mild intentions to reimplement the core functionality of CSL, IBCP, and DID as public userscripts.

Also available for Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/copy-selected-links/

When you select text in a page and your selection contains links, you can right-click anywhere on the selection or use a hotkey to copy the URLs of all those links at once.
