ZeroFox Official (Sike) (ID: 000000ab3407993e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/03/2023 Does what it says, able to select text right click and choose the search engine you want. The search engine list is customizable so you can add or remove search engines, thnx for this extension dev really helps me out. When adding new search engines for it remember the query would be '%s' So you could always just go to a search engine you want type 'word' into it copy that link and replace the 'word' with '%s' and now you have the search link for your engine.
