Description

Prototype extension providing quick opening of arXiv PDFs from their IDs, and a popup INSPIRE search in Chrome.

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.
