Reviews for Swift Selection Search
Swift Selection Search by Daniel Lobo
Review by aurelya
Rated 5 out of 5
by aurelya, 6 years agoI am loving this extension! Just wondering if you could add a user page or something where users can submit more examples (If something like this already exists, please let me know!)? A couple of things I'm looking for but haven't figured out just yet are how to have the selected text's hyperlinked url open as cached link [basically launch url as a google webcache search] or similarly open link as viewsource. Hope that somehow makes sense.
Here's some dumb ones I use regularly, lol, if anyone cares. :D

posted 6 years agoThank you for the review and sorry for the late reply! There's no user list for this but from time to time I see if there are some more engines that make sense as defaults or as examples that come with SSS.
These are good suggestions. Thanks for sharing them with everyone. :) I will think about the user list (actually added that to my to-do list), but it might be a little nightmare-ish to maintain with reasonable quality, so no promises! ;)
Cheers!
