LEEDZ CHROME BROWSER EXTENSION INSTALLATION GUIDE
====================================================================

12/2025: These instructions are temporary, until the Leedz is 
registered with Google and available on the App Store.  Then the 
install will be easier, but the program will be harder to update.  
While the app is in beta, and we are taking your feature requests 
and bug reports please endure this more cumbersome process.
