How to use Glance-Bookmarklet (ex OpenSpritz)

How to use Glance-Bookmarklet (ex OpenSpritz)

OpenSpritz changed its name to Glance-Bookmarklet, and the old bookmarklet stopped working because of this. You can solve this issue following these steps.

Installation

  1. Go to http://miserlou.github.io/Glance-Bookmarklet/
  2. Drag the "OpenSpritz this!" button (the leftmost one) to your bookmarks bar.
  3. Edit the newly created bookmark, modify its URL to:

javascript:(function(){ cb = function(){ create_spritz(); }; var script=document.createElement('SCRIPT');script.src='https://miserlou.github.io/Glance-Bookmarklet/spritz.js?callback=cb'; script.onload=cb; document.body.appendChild(script);})();

How to use

While visiting a page, select the text you want to read, and click the bookmarklet. Then select a reading speed.

Have fun!

Thanks for doing this! Used this to fix my own bookmarklet!

I'm slowly trying to revive Glance again - hopefully will re-use this as a Web Extension.

Thanks!
