What is *cadmium*?
------------------
`cadmium` is an interactive launcher for Google Chrome/Chromium, that allows you to select which profile to open an URL in, instead of using the last window opened.

It also allows you to open Incognito Mode, or launch in the [SELinux Sandbox](https://selinuxproject.org/page/NB_SandBox).

How does *cadmium* work?
------------------------
`cadmium` scans your Chrome/Chromium settings for profile folders and displays a dialog with buttons for every of the found profiles.

How do I use *cadmium*?
-----------------------
Just set whatever opens your links to use `cadmium [URL]` and you are done.

Why the name *cadmium*?
-----------------------
* [Cadmium](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadmium) has the atomic number 48, that's the double of [chromium](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium) (24)
* Cadmium is a toxic heavy metal, just like chromium
