Firefox extension: ChatGPT keyboard shortcuts for Gemini & Bing Copilot

JavaScript

I’ve been using ChatGPT pretty heavily since it came out, and honestly, it’s like having a second brain at your beck and call. You just need to get good at prompts.

More recently, Google debuted Gemini, and Microsoft introduced Bing Copilot. I use these when ChatGPT doesn’t provide the answer I’m looking for.

The problem is, I got used to the keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl + K opening a new chat in ChatGPT. Unfortunately, neither Gemini nor Bing provide similar keyboard shortcuts at this moment (as of Jun 10, 2024).

Being a developer who just loves keyboard shortcuts, I have created a mini extension to address this. Written in JavaScript, I deployed it only on Firefox, since I’m a Firefox fan.

Here is the shortcuts guide:

	Gemini	Bing
Open new chat	`Ctrl` + `k`	`Ctrl` + `k`
Toggle sidebar	`Ctrl` + `Shift` + `S`	`Ctrl` + `Shift` + `S`
Focus chat input	`Shift` + `Esc`	`Shift` + `Esc`
Copy last response	`Ctrl` + `Shift` + `C`	N/A
Copy last code block	`Ctrl` + `Shift` + `;`	N/A
