Summary

Analyze keywords

Hi! This is a quick bit of code I knocked up for myself a while back, which other theoretical physicists out there might find helpful.

It has two main features:

Provides a toolbar button allowing quick access to a search interface for INSPIRE, and also to arXiv PDFs via the normal identifier.
Allows you to select text on any page (including inside PDFs you open in the browser) and right-click to open any arXiv PDFs references by ID in that selection.

Note this is an unofficial extension, not endorsed by INSPIRE or arXiv.

User reviews

This is simple and brilliant - it saves you a few seconds every time you download a paper. Highly recommended for researchers using the arXiv.
