GearSaver Reloaded
The GearSaver Bookmarklet was not that useful since there was no easy way to use the saved data. Since this is an itch that I’d really like to be able to scratch, I reached further and improved on it to the point that I can now write this post in a GearSaver-enabled textarea. Added features are:
- uses jQuery – I have no intention of working around browser DOM quirks more than I already have to
- displays previously saved versions
- ability to preview a version and apply to current textarea content
- ability to delete versions
Eventually, I hope to be able to provide the script as:
- ad-hoc inclusion into any page – this already works in the current version
- as a bookmarklet – so that you can enable any page
- as a greasemonkey script – so that you can automatically have it turned on on the sites that you want it
So, without further ado, you can try it out…
1. Here’s a textarea
2. Make sure you have Google Gears installed.
3. Click here to enable GearSaver.
4. Gears will ask you whether to allow http://dready.org/ to write data
Please report any bugs / suggestions.
Update 20070812: Updated to use new and improved version 0.4
