Zhongzhong

Fork of the Zhongwen chrome extension that translates Chinese words when hovering on them.

The extension is missing a repository for open collaboration an since the developer didn't answer my messages I decided to fork it.

To install it go to:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/zhongzhong-an-improved-ch/dggcgdjndddfmcfoipccicfoajmciacf
