Chrome JavaScript Console – DEAD
This project is now dead. You can achieve what I was trying to accomplish in the built-in Chrome JavaScript Console by simply holding down shift while you hit enter. This effectively kills this project as the purpose of this extension was to allow multi-line in-browser prototyping of JavaScript within any web-page from within Google Chrome the way you can in Firefox with Firebug.
If, for some reason, someone wants to continue developing this project, leave a comment and I will link to you. Have fun

For multiline entry on the Chrome console, try pressing option (maybe alt on Windows?) at the same time as return.

Hrm… doesn’t work for me…
I tried “alt” “ctrl” and even the “windows” key…
Thanks though.

I’m sure you’ve figured this out by now, but for multiline entry just hold down shift when you press return.

Hah! Nope, didn’t realize. Thanks for the tip!
