Submit text selection to search engine from context menu #361

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
A feature I'm used to from a certain other browser is being able to select some 
text, and 
submit it to my search provider (i.e. the one also powering the toolbar search 
field) via a 
context menu entry. I'd like to see this in Arora as well.

On top, in that certain other browser I also use an extension that makes all of 
the installed 
search providers available via submenu in the context menu. When Arora receives 
support for 
installing and selecting between multiple OpenSearch providers for the toolbar 
search field, it 
would be nice to include this extra as well. It's enormously useful to be able 
to select some 
text and quickly submit it to the most appropriate search provider (without 
first switching the 
search field, etc).

It has been already implemented in the development branch of open seach support 
for Arora. You can try 
it out by checking out the code from github.

Sounds great, thanks.

(Sorry for not filing this as an Enhancement directly, btw; I couldn't figure 
out how.)
