PencilToggler
Description from store

Tired of mousing over to click that darn pencil button every time you need to switch between pencil and pen?

Do the New York Times Crossword puzzle in chrome WITHOUT having to take your fingers off of the keyboard, and don't let your speedier crossing friends defeat you during a relaxing, yet competitive coff'n'cross (coffee and crossword). Prove to your friends that they are just mere average geese, while you're a sexy, athletic, waterdancing Grebe!

To use:
1. Download this sick extension and install per usual.
2. Go to "chrome://extensions/shortcuts" and find the Pencil Toggler.
3. Where you see "Type a shortcut", type a niche shortcut. We recommend 'Ctrl + Space' to maintain consistency when swapping laptops with your fellow grebe.
4. Perfect that cross before Rex can post his daily complaint about the theme.

Set up the shortcut and followed the instructions, doesn't work. Restarted chrome, doesn't work. Seems like this tool is broken.

Almost removed this before I read the instructions for setting the shortcut. Works perfectly now. Thanks!
