Multi Search Chrome Extension

Perform searches with your favourite search engines from the Context Menu and straight from the Omnibox..

multi search allows a choice of search options from both the context menu and the Omnibox and can even search multiple web sites at once.

The list of search engines is user configurable and auto populated by web sites that support the OpenSearch standard.

It is also possible to add search engines through The mycroft project website.

Ive attempted to provide support at the search engine level for all locales, please let me know if you are having problems with a specific locale.

As for translations, if anyone is willing to provide the time to help with translation work I would be more than happy to add support for their language.

When you activiate Synchronisation, you will be prompted to log in to your google docs account (if you are not already logged in) and you will then be prompted to grant multi search rights to access your Google Docs.

is the text you wish to search for.

For example, if you have your Omnibox tag for imdb.com set to imdb and you wanted to search for Avatar you would type: multi imdb avatar.

Please note, it is a requirement of the Omnibox API that an initial fixed keyword (in this case "multi") be defined for the extension.

As such it is not possible to remove the requirement to type multi before the tag and search string.

For tags that do not use the {searchTerms} key phrase, you can omit the search string.

For example, if you were using the bmark tagname for google bookmarks you could bookmark the current page by typing: multi BMark SYNCHRONISATION Synchronisation creates a folder call "Chrome Sync" in your Google Docs.

This is used to store a synchronisation file called "Multi Search".

The first time you synchronise, your local set
