There might be an easier way to get the code but I was able to use 
TooBib with

chromate in the "head" mode and it seems to put the code in the Toobib

debug information assuming that my hotmail account has been logged into

with whatever creds the Toobib chrome instance is using.  F-ing incredible.

One of the community standards on the Toobib project will be anyone removing

profanity directed at MSFT will be banned ROFL.
