Description

For ArXiv PDF / abstract tabs: - Renames the title to paper's title automatically in the background. (Originally is meaningless paper id, or start with paper id) - Add an action button to open its corresponding abstract / PDF page. (Originally is hard to get back to abstract page from PDF page) - Add a direct download link on abstract page, click it to download the PDF with the title as filename. (Originally is paper id as filename) - Open the paper in extra services such as ar5iv and arXiv Vanity. - Better title even for bookmarks! - Firefox has strict restrictions on PDF.js. So it doesn't work well with OneTab, the PDF renaming is achieved by intercepting requests and show the PDF in a container. The bookmark works well though. - Works well with native tab search Permissions: - `tabs`: On extension button click, open a new tab and move it to the right of the old active tab. - `activeTab`: Read active tab's title and modify it using the tab's url. - `storage`: Save extension configurations. - `contextMenus`: When right-click the extension button, show a help menu item. - `scripting`: Inject content scripts to existing tabs. - `*://arxiv.org/*`: Inject content scripts to existing tabs. - `*://export.arxiv.org/*`: Inject content scripts to existing tabs. - `*://browse.arxiv.org/*`: Inject content scripts to existing tabs. - `*://ar5iv.labs.arxiv.org/*`: Inject content scripts to existing tabs.
