Analyze keywords

It based on personal hobbies to develop the chrome platform gesture - smartup Gestures, now it will be brought to the Firefox platform, I hope you'll like it. Firefox is an excellent and historic browser, and its gestures are also very mature. Due to the limitations of webextension, and the differences between different platforms, the current expansion of some problems, some problems I will slowly improve, and some are browser restrictions, there is no way. Including but not limited to the following issues: 1, the extension can not run on some pages: AMO page, Firefox internal page; 2, Becase of firefox dosen't support the optional permissions in earlier version, smartup will request many permissions, such as savepage, downloads, bookmarks, history, management, sessions and tts, these permissions used for actions ---- Save Page, Open Default Downloads Folder, save image, Recent Bookmarks, recent history,extension manager, reopen closed tab,Text To Speech and so on; 3, because of Firefox has not yet supported some API, some actions does not work.

One problem I have with it is that its Super Drag ignores link actions on images and there's no setting to change that. If an image is linking to a bigger version of itself, the low res one will be saved. What's especially bad is that even if you set image action to None, link action is still ignored if link is an image and thus no action is performed. As for mouse gestures, I recommend StrokesPlus, not just for FireFox. Other than this issue, the extension is good and deserves a 5*

This is by far the best gesture add-on I have ever tried both compared to Firefox and chrome add-ons and even built-in opera gestures. I have tried almost every gesture add-on out there and I have never seen such an impressive number of actions. It might not be a beautiful interface which at first threw me off, but you forget about all that as soon as you try it out. They have APPs in the freaking add-on. Such as random number generator, tabs list and even a QR generator.
