Description

HOW TO USE:
After installation, works only in NEW or RELOADED tabs. Those tabs must be WEB PAGES too. Click on the icon in location bar to disable/enable for a page.
To change options, go to Extensions and click on Options for this extension. Or right-click on icon(if present) in location bar and click Options.

LIMITATIONS:
This extension works by plugging JavaScript into pages you load. As such, it cannot change system settings like disabling default hotkeys of Chrome. It also works only when you are in tabs with actual web pages, and not every web page works (see your luck :P). Finally, some shortcut combinations may not work. Right now, these are limitations that cannot be overcome.

CHANGES:
0.13 had a bug with saving options. Fixed now.
0.14 had some options not working. Fixed now.
0.20 change the way the blocklist works
Recent changes made because Google required developers to make some changes. As it has been so long since I worked on extensions, I might miss out some things. I won't be maintaining this extension much, though.
0.21 remove host permission

DESCRIPTION:
Enable/disable hotkeys and change shortcuts for browser actions. Default keys are from Gamer's Control.

You can enable/disable hotkeys temporarily by clicking on the icon in the omnibar.

Blocklist interface is only for advanced users. You can specify the URL where the hotkeys will be disabled.

After installation, it will only work on new or reloaded tabs.

storage: store custom hotkeys/blocklist

AutoControl seems like a better extension (this is not an endorsement and I've not used it myself)

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
