This extension mimics the ability of Firefox and mozilla based browsers to use aliases as a shortcut to call specific bookmarks.

It allows you to set alias/shortcut for your URL or javascript bookmarklets or folders, directly in the bookmark manager. You can then call an alias from chrome's omnibox or from the extension's popup window (keyboard shortcut: "ctrl+.").
Simple "http(s)" bookmarks as well as javascript bookmarklets can be called with or without parameters.
If it works as a bookmark, it works as an alias.

Since your aliases are stored with your bookmarks, exporting or transfering them also tranfers the aliases.

Starting with version 0.9.6.15, folder alias is available. It can be used to open static pages, or to make a group search on multiple search sites (examples provided).

Version 0.9.8 introduces auto-completion in popup window (see options page to enable).

Keep track of all your old extensions, as well as current and past states of the extensions still installed.
"Extension log" logs when an extension is installed, uninstalled, upgraded, enabled or disabled.

View all these informations in a table sorted by name, state (enabled, disabled, uninstalled), extension type, or id. With a list of events associated with each extension ever installed (as long as "Extension log" is always enabled).

Aside from its main purpose, "Extension log" records a log of the date and version of every chrome update.

You can save the whole log history, in case of crash. Right click the extension icon and select "Export log" (save the whole page or one of the textareas). No restore function available yet, but you can access the stored values manually from the background page's javascript console (and update from there if necessary).

EL allows you to save extensions packages in its original format or as a zip file.

Tiny proxy allows you to manage multiple proxy servers, and to change easily between them.

Note: This extension is a work in progress (as of june 2019). Your input is welcome.

You can specify a set of rules to select which websites are proxied, or not, by your different servers.
The current proxy settings are defined by Tiny Proxy as PAC scripts.

TP implements the following types of proxies:

• "server": all other "proxies" are directly/indirectly using one or several "server" proxies
• "PAC": currently only supports local PAC script code.
• "alias": shortcut to any of the other types of proxies.
• "switch": list of rules to fine-tune the websites to use with or without a proxy
• "pool": if you have a set of unreliable proxies you can group them in "pools" and let chrome select the first valid one.

TP allows you to add temporary proxy rules (see popup). This way you can combine multiples proxy profiles.

Note that you have to select which proxies appear in the popup list. In the settings window, check the box next to their name.

TP does not support proxy authentication yet. Need volunteers to test...
