ARCHIVAL NOTE

This project has been archived. It is unfinished.

I used it as an opportunity to learn about daemons and socket communication. While I do believe that there is a real use case for this project, I do not intend to finish it.

Feel free to pick up the code if you'd like.

Lunk

Chrome extension that can open specified links with terminal commands

Details

The extension consists of two parts.

There's the Chrome extension, that can be installed through the chrome web store (work in progress), or locally by installing the extension manually.

Then there's the daemon running in the background. The reason this is not integrated into the chrome extension itself (which would be much more convenient) is missing security permissions.
