HN: next page with the period key

On Hacker News the period key loads the next page of the list via the More link.

Code to copy

document.addEventListener('keydown', function (e) {
  if (e.target.matches('input, textarea, [contenteditable]')) { return; }
  var more = Array.prototype.slice.call(document.querySelectorAll('a.morelink'));
  if (e.key === '.' && more.length) {
    location.href = more[0].href;
  }
});

How to use this example

1. Copy the code with the button above.
2. Install JustZix (2 minutes) and open the extension on the target page.
3. Add a new rule matching that page.
4. Paste the code into the rule's JavaScript panel and save — it runs on every page visit.
