Adds a keyboard shortcut for the Home button.
Primarily for Chromebook™ users.
This extension adds a keyboard shortcut for the browser Home button. By default it will be set to Alt+H unless that shortcut is being used by another extension. To change the shortcut, paste this into the address bar: chrome://extensions/configureCommands
Windows®, Linux® and Chromebase™ users already have Alt+Home (the keyboard Home key) as a shortcut; Mac users can press Command-Shift-H. But most Chromebook keyboards do not have a Home key.
Note:
By default in Chrome™ the Homepage is the same as the New Tab page, but this can be changed in the Settings. This extension does not have access to that setting so it will load the New Tab page even where a Homepage has been specified. If you use a separate Homepage and want that to be loaded by this extension, click the "Options" link in the Extensions page and enter the Homepage address.
