Extension summary

Analyze keywords

An extension to copy the URL of a "popup" window. It's the window you get when an app is selected to "Open as window" from the chrome app launcher, it will also work for any normal tab

When a user invokes the context menu on a page, right clicks, and selects item "Copy Window URL" chrome will open a prompt dialog so the user may manually copy the url of the current tab

Copy Window URL uses the google chrome prompt dialog allowing the user to manually copy a url
Copy Window URL does not automatically copy to the clipboard on a native operating system (it's a sandbox javascript limitation)
I will automatically copy to the native clipboard once javascript has a standardized way to access the operating system clipboard

User reviews

I was trying to have a TamperMonkey script work on a particular popup window. This extension allowed me to easily find the window URL so I could add it to my script. This saved me the effort of trying to retrieve it from JavaScript, which I don't know very well. Thank you for creating this simple extension!

Yes, but I need the link already in Clipboard when I use it or I double the work, and more if I must wait until the message appear. I hate that limitation u.u
