Just what I needed
by Barry Owens, 2016-10-02

Hey! Awesome extension. We have this URL at my work where, if you submit a GET request to the URL, it wipes a cache and forces a server to render our changes. (A bit odd, I know, but hey!). This extension makes it easy to tap a key combo and wipe the cache! Awesome. Just a note though - my Mac seems to have a binding already set for Alt+R - it posts the RESERVE symbol: ®. I tried ALT+SHIFT+R but that posts a symbol as well. Just thought it worth mentioning. Love the extension though. And hey, if you use Facebook's Messenger.com to chat with your friends, check out my extension as well ;)
