Extension Usage Instructions
In China, teachers, students, and researchers need to download the pdf full text on arxiv, such as https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.09755. However, it's too slow, which is just a waste of time to wait for downloading.
This extension is to offer an alternative link on the original page for those who want to download. This link is an official website mirror in China. Taking the mentioned URL 'https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.09755' as an example, its download link is 'https://arxiv.org/pdf/1806.09755'. This extension will add a new link below the download link, shown as 'Chinese mirror' on the HTML page whose actual link is 'http://cn.arxiv.org/pdf/1806.09755'. This is much faster in China.
Therefore, this extension is simple but much helpful. Extension Basic Information
