Avis de Michalis Kamburelis
Noté 5 sur 5
par Michalis Kamburelis, il y a 8 ansWorks cool -- I installed the native application and this extension in Firefox 57 (on Debian).
Good:
- Native application can be installed only for the current user (not system-wide),
- Everything is open-source,
- Works with Emacs nicely, as an editor I'm using a trivial script that does emacsclient --alternate-editor='emacs' "$@"
Notes:
- Test on textarea like https://github.com/jlebon/textern/issues/new .
- Note that it doesn't seem to work on textarea on https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/textarea , since it's in mozilla.org domain and Firefox seems to block script injections there (see jlebon comment below - thanks for catching this!).
- The default shortcut Ctrl+Shift+E for me always makes me type "e" (in addition to firing an editor). After changing it to Ctrl+Shift+F , it works perfect.
(This review is edited, as initially I thought that the extension doesn't work for me, but actually it was only blocked on mozilla.org. Thanks to jlebon for replying!)

Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 8 ansInteresting, it doesn't work for me either on mozilla.org. I think Firefox actively blocks content script injections on mozilla.org (though the documentation only says that's the case for only addons.mozilla.org).
Maybe try it on a different website, e.g. https://github.com/jlebon/textern/issues/new, and if it still doesn't work, feel free to create an upstream issue there :)
The default key is Ctrl+Shift+E, but note that you can change that mapping in the extension settiongs.

Not since conkeror died have I found something this useful for interacting with a browser!
Worth remarking that for emacs uses who prefer to work with text windows, emacsclient is a good alternative to opening a new terminal (the process suggested in the instructions here). This is because emacsclient will then place the text in a new buffer in an existing instance of emacs (the one running the so-called emacs server) so you can for instance easily transfer text between buffers.
My config therefore says ["emacsclient", "+%l:%c"] and it worked the first time. Bravo, Lebon! Un nom tres adequat. - Noté 5 sur 5par parallel, il y a 3 ans

- Noté 5 sur 5par Eduardo Santiago, il y a 6 ansOh how I've missed _It's All Text_. Thank you jlebon for providing this!

thx - Noté 5 sur 5par rsk78n, il y a 7 ansBeen looking for something like this for a long time to edit online text in vim. Works perfectly, especially with a vi-like control add-on so your hands never have to leave the keyboard. Editing wikis is no longer a chore.
- Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 14770611 de Firefox, il y a 7 ansIt mimics the "It's All Text" add-on behaviour pretty well. The installation process is quite straightforward as simple Makefile is used (and there is option to install in home directory without root privileges!). Good job!

- Noté 5 sur 5par Selth, il y a 8 ansFinally an extension that works properly! I missed it's all text so much.
- Noté 5 sur 5par Petr Zemek, il y a 8 ansGreat replacement for the "It's All Text" add-on for Firefox 57+. It even passes the current caret position to the external editor (tested with GVim). Thank you very much Jonathan for creating the add-on!

Using plain ["emacsclient"] as the editor works fine for me.
