Bruce Maples (ID: 00000039ac0bc5a5) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/07/2023 Excellent set of tools. Use it regularly. Only small negative is that I would like a little documentation built into the tool (perhaps a dialog box you get to via a button?). Definitely worth the install.

Matt B (ID: 00000003132dabc0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/15/2023 i love this piece of software. i wish there was a way to either ask for more features or pay for the features to add more functions and expand on already excellent features. i would love to contribute $ to development of this great extension. just in case author of this addon is listening. here would be list of requests: 1-enable/disable operations (i never use json/encode/decode/slugify functions so it would make scrolling less) 2-option to sort operations instead of forcing just one way of list of operations (i always get lost because it is not sorted by first letter) 3-keep processed text in the extension and don't wipe it. i iterate on the text and if i forget to copy it, or click on something by mistake, the new text i put together gets lost and i have to do it all over 4-save repetitive operations as macro to use multiple functions in one click next time 5-remove lines with less than x characters. i split lines with space character and get list of lines with & sign or "me" or "a" so I would love to be able to say "remove lines with less than 3 characters" 6-remove words with less than x characters same mindset as #5 but being able to remove anything else than x many characters and just be done with the operation, no further action needed. please check out a software called matnpardaz - very useful text frequency functions

Dini Atika (ID: 0000007ecb1fb57d) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/22/2022 I just want extension that can change a multi text line to one single line.

Boota Bashir (ID: 000000bf951268ae) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/10/2022 Please add a functionality here that if some text is selected, then it should give numbers from text only separated with commas. so that if only numbers /digits are needed , they can be get easily

Jordan JD Peterson (ID: 0000007de5fad61a) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/07/2021 Only supported on Linux and FreeBSD; at least that's what the plugin says after trying to run it on Windows 10. This is the first time for me to experience a browser plugin needing a specific OS to run.
