NOT A Translator 1.6
About this extension
Not a translator fetches the definition of selected word from a well-known dictionary and displays the definition in a tooltip. This simple extension aims at improving user's fluency in a foreign language by defining a word in its own place rather than translating it. English universitarian dictionary is actually available. Spanish and french dictionary too.
This is honest app ! contains no ads no trackers and has been developed with user security in mind. A simple contribution by paypal or leetchi would be appreciated but isn't mandatory.
TODO :
--> enhance font rendering on wallpapers.
updates :
--> heartbreaking-high-treason new feature implemented : quick-translate into current local.
-->per tab detected language and dictionnary selection storage (to avoid refresh.)
-->bug fixes or intended to be fixed : some appeared at publication time so I can't find a way to fix them without publishing ! this is the case with the contextMenu zapped.
--> German & Italian dictionnaries added !
--> Surprise background for the popup !
--> Better appearance.
--> Better autodetect management


Nota : If contextual menu doesn't appear at install, disable/reenable the extension through popup !
