Contribute
Clippy fetches comments from my personal repository file: https://github.com/capJavert/clippy-dictionary/blob/master/clippy.json - Feel free to contribute new comments for your favorite sites by making a pull request
- Entries are filled in format
"keyword": "comment"
- For example sitename for github.com would be 'github', but it could also be "com" which would add this comment for all sites containing ".com" in URL
- You can also define an array of comments like
"keyword: ["comment1", "comment2"]
- If there are multiple comments for the same site Clippy will pick a random one
- I will try to merge any pull requests on regular basis
- Feel free to build and install your own version of Clippy if you don't want to wait for next update
