Make some "favorite settings" to short links in the context menu #52

Hi there,

this is only a feature request. I often switch languages from "auto detect -> english" to "auto detect -> german" and back. So if we would have short links in the context menu we would be able to save time going through all the languages list.

Do you think it would be a good idea to translate to 2 languages at the same time and display both results next to each other?

lokimo commented 9 years ago

Oh, yes, that would also be very useful. I think even better in helping to learn a language.

Another solution would be to implement some kind of rules which take the result of the auto-detect language and then decide the target language.

I agree, it would be nice to have a quick way to switch back to the previously selected languages (see #22 too).

Do you think it would be a good idea to translate to 2 languages at the same time and display both results next to each other?

It looks like a specific use case to me, but maybe in the settings?
