Kiwi Extension for Safari

The Kiwi extension for Safari allows you to easily create posts on App.net with Kiwi. There are 2 ways to access the extension.

Menu Bar

When you click on the Kiwi button on the menu bar, a new post will be created in Kiwi. The content of the post will be different depending on whether or not text is selected in the browser.

  • When text is selected, the content of the post created in Kiwi will contain that selected text along with the url to the webpage.
  • When nothing is selected, the content of the post created in Kiwi will contain the browser title along with the url to the webpage.

Tip: You can also use the keyboard shortcut shift-ctrl-P to trigger the Kiwi extension as well.

Contextual Menu

When you right click on a webpage, there are 3 ways that you can post to Kiwi.

  • Kiwi - Post Text: This behaves exactly like the menu bar button does. When text is selected, it along with the page url are added to the post content. When nothing is selected (simply right clicking on the page) then the page title and url get added to the post.
  • Kiwi - Post Link: When you right click on a link and run this service, the text or the link along with the url from that link will get added to the post.
  • Kiwi - Post Image: When you right click on an image and run this service, the url to from that image will get added to the post. If you hold down the option key, the alt tag from the image will also be added to the post.

Installation

To install the Kiwi extension into Safari, simply double click on the Kiwi.safariextz file and choose install when prompted.

Tip: After you install the Kiwi extension, it will not work on any existing webpages that are open until you refresh them.
