Highlight any text on the page, and `Cmd/Ctrl`+`Click` to search the selected text in a new tab.
QuickSearch Extension
- Cmd/Ctrl+Shft+Click to focus the new tab.
- Free and open-source forever
- A keyboard shortcut is coming soon
------------------------------------------------------------
Highlighting text, then right-clicking and selecting \"Search Google for...\" is an action I have conducted repeatedly throughout the day, every single day for probably a decade. I wanted to simplify the process by writing a small Chrome extension.
There is one more major functionality I would like to add (adding a keyboard shortcut), but all other changes will be related to maintenance and refactoring only. If anyone has any ideas making the extension smaller and more efficient, please don't hesitate to contribute.
