use same cookies, cache, and apps in SSB? about chrome-ssb-osx

[lhl]

Dean, SSB script specifies a user data dir. You might be able to change
that to your default but it might complain (I've never tried). LMK if it
works (or if you need more help to try it out).

Is it possible for the SSBs that this script creates to use the same
cookies and cache as my normal Chrome browser?

For example, I made a gmail SSB but when I click on links, say from github,
they open in a new window in the SSB instance of chrome but my credentials
don't carry between my normal Chrome experience and the SSB instance.

Similarly for chrome apps. I have boomerang
http://www.boomeranggmail.com/installed in Chrome but it does not
appear to cross over to the SSB
instance.

OK, I checked and while it's possible to use the same Profile, if you are already running an instance of Chrome (like err, your copy of Chrome) then it will throw an error: [5823:3847:0415/080724:ERROR:process_singleton_mac.cc(106)] Unable to obtain profile lock.

If you want to give it a try just modify the script at $NAME.app/Contents/MacOS/$NAME and delete the profile setting and it'll try to use your default profile...

You'll get an error like:

[5823:3847:0415/080724:ERROR:process_singleton_mac.cc(106)] Unable to obtain profile lock.

Closing this out.

Rats. Thanks for checking.
