Wonderful, thank you very much for this release!
Świetnie, bardzo dziękuję za nową wersję! :-)
Thank you and congratulations for another great release!
Fantastic work as usual! The addons manager is great and the addressbar much improved. My only minor quibble is that you can't use shortcuts like Ctrl+W (or even Alt+F4) while the addressbar is displaying, but who cares? :)
Emdek, Can you include .Otter & .Qtwebengineprocess folder to C:User/Appdata/Local/Otter ? ???
Where does one get add-ons for Otter Browser? I am looking for something that would allow me to send the current tab's URL link via GMail. Thank you.
For the moment addons means UserJS, meaning for instance sites like https://openuserjs.org/ and https://greasyfork.org/.
However, as to your question itself, you don't need any addons for that. There are two main methods available.
In both cases, what you need is a bookmarklet that performs the action you want, namely something like this (via (http://email.about.com/library/misc/blgmail_this_bookmarklet.htm)):
javascript:(function()%7Bm='https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&tf=1&to=&su='+encodeURIComponent(document.title)+'&body='+encodeURIComponent(document.location);w=window.open(m,'addwindow','status=no,toolbar=no,width=575,height=545,resizable=yes');setTimeout(function()%7Bw.focus();%7D,%20250);%7D)();
For a bookmarklet, you add a bookmark, put that in the address, and add a convenient keyword (like "mail") or whatever.
For a custom button, you right click on e.g. the back/forward buttons → Navigation Bar → Configure. Then you add one with the "Open URL" action.
Thank you, Frenzie, for your feedback. Unfortunately, that script does not seem to do the trick with either a custom button method or bookmarklet method. Your information is much apppreciated, however. You taught me something here for the future at least. :)
It should work provided popup windows aren't blocked on the site in question. Unfortunately that does somewhat limit its utility. A better way might be to use an "Arbitrary List of Actions" to get around this limitation, but I don't think that's implemented yet.
@Frenzie That bookmarklet simply opens a window to GMail's inbox. It doesn't open a "compose mail" window at all.
@treego The problem was that it said http instead of https. That's not an issue in other browsers for whatever reason.
@Frenzie Thank you once again for snooping through this. The problem I have now is that the bookmarklet opens a blank page first and then opens a blank GMail compose window. The compose window puts about:blank in the message body section of the compose window and nothing in the subject line of the compose window. I appreciate your time and willingness to post about this here, Frenzie. :)
Edit/Addition:
I just figured out that I have to select "Reuse current tab" in the Ctrl-F12 Preferences/General in order for this bookmarklet to work. I have always had that unchecked/unselected previously. Thank you so much, again, Frenzie.

What exactly do you mean?
