Tolkien Gateway Extension

This extension is dedicated to fans of J.R.R. Tolkien and his works.

Features:
* Highlight any keyword on any website, right click and select \"Search in Tolkien Gateway\" to immediately be taken to the respective article.
* Curious what chapter and page a particular quote comes from? Simply highlight any quote from Tolkien's works, right click, and select \"Lookup Tolkien Reference\" to be directed to the reference on the Digital Tolkien Project.
* Optionally, you can choose to hide LotR Fandom results from Google, or simply redirect LotR Fandom's articles to the relevant article on Tolkien Gateway.

Coming Soon:
* The ability to type \"Aule\" or any Tolkien term which needs accents, and the extension will automatically convert it to \"Aulë\" to eliminate the need for Alt Codes.
