Better Gmail for Chrome is inspired by the well-known and grown-up Better Gmail extension for Firefox. Like the original, we've packaged up a bunch of scripts that we've either tested successfully or modified to make them work correctly—since Chrome doesn't have full Greasemonkey support we had to make a few modifications to some of them.
