Adds keyboard hotkeys for opening a search of highlighted text in your favourite search engine in a new tab. This is a more efficient way than the usual highlight text> right click> find the Search for____ option in the context menu. Option to open the tab in the background or the foreground. The search engine and the hotkeys are both customizable. There's also a context menu item for background searching.

- Does exactly what it needs to do, adds a simple hotkey for something chrome hasn't thought to do themselves. Doesn't seem to work on some websites (e.g. wikipedia) which isn't the end of the world and might not be the fault of the extension but worth saying.
