Wyrd 1.2: snapshots, spreadsheets and a cheat sheet
Version 1.2 · · Chrome Web Store and Firefox Add-ons
Save a window’s tabs without closing them, take your keywords and tab bundles into a spreadsheet, and see every command on one page. No new permission: the update installs by itself.
> /snapshot saves this window’s tabs as a bundle and keeps them open; > /snapshotall takes every window.
Download CSV on the Tab bundles page, and Export CSV in Keyword tools: open them in Excel or Google Sheets. Import reads the keywords back.
A cheat sheet at the top of the Features page: every command, what it needs, and whether it works in this browser now.
A contents column on the left of Settings, Keyword tools, Shared lists, Activity and Features.
Add to Wyrd buttons on the guides at wyrd.page open Wyrd’s Add box with the keyword and your address filled in; nothing is saved until you press Add. Load in Wyrd and invite links now work when clicked on any web page, not only when typed.
Wyrd is on Firefox Add-ons too, the same day. In Firefox you type ! where Chrome uses >. The Firefox version gets the Add to Wyrd buttons and the clicked-link fix in its next update.
Wyrd 1.1: a clearer internal address, and your own trigger
Version 1.1 · · Chrome Web Store
Wyrd’s internal address is now wyrd.internal (it was wyrd.invalid, which looked broken; both are reserved names that never leave your browser). Chrome asks you once after this update: open the three-dot menu, click “Wyrd is disabled”, then Accept permissions. Your keywords, settings and lists are untouched.
Search-engine entries and links made with 1.0 keep working. If you set Wyrd up as a search engine, Wyrd’s icon shows “!” until you copy the new address from Settings, Optional setup.
Type your own trigger instead of >, or none at all: Settings, Optional setup now asks what you want to type before a keyword, such as / gh or just gh, and fills in the steps for you. > keeps working, with its suggestions as you type.
Wyrd 1.0: the first public release
Version 1.0 · · Chrome Web Store
Wyrd is on the Chrome Web Store. Type > and Space in the address bar, then a keyword, and Wyrd opens the page or the search you gave it.
Keywords for pages and searches: an address with %s takes the words you type after the keyword; %1 and %2 take one word each.
Aliases (lib for @library), sub-keywords (dentist/book) and keywords that open several pages at once.
Save this page: click Wyrd’s icon on any page, pick or type a keyword, and press Save.
The Keywords page (> /home): every keyword you can type, by category, with search, history and usage counts.
Shared lists: subscribe to keywords kept in a Google Sheet, a file on GitHub or any JSON or CSV file, in the Family & Friends and Teams views. Organisations can preset lists with Chrome policy.
Tab bundles: > /clear research saves a window’s tabs and closes them; > tabs/research brings them back. > /dedupe closes duplicate tabs.
Google Sheet backup and sync, right-click search, Define & translate, reminders, starter packs, and backups to a file or a folder, each switched on when you want it.
No server, no account and no analytics: your keywords stay in your browser.
