Sobre esta extensión
Swift Selection Search (SSS) is an add-on for quickly searching for selected text using your favorite search engines.
Usage
After selecting some words on a page, a small popup box will appear with multiple search engines. Press one and you'll search for the selected text using that engine! Google, YouTube, Maps, Amazon... you name it.
If you prefer the right-click menu, SSS has also got you covered with context search. Or you can disable the popup itself and leave only the context menu. Your choice. :)
Personalization
SSS is very configurable. Open your installed add-ons and access the "Swift Selection Search" options page to see all the settings. Remember to follow the short instructions at the top!
You can add new search engines for the popup and context search, change the appearance of the icons, what happens when you click them, when/where the popup appears, whether to auto copy text on selection, etc.
ABOUT PERMISSIONS:
Among other arguably less intrusive permissions, SSS also requires permission to "Access your data for all websites". This is simply to fix a problem that caused the popup to not work in pages that use frames. SSS does not care about what sites you use and does not send your data anywhere. (Well, if you ask it, it can backup settings to Firefox Sync!)

Notas de prensa para 3.47.3
3.47.3
- Minor fix for the Google Translate default search engine.
- Small text changes in the options page.
3.47.2
- Fixed problems with opening searches in the previous version, mainly if “new tab” add-ons were installed.
- Sadly, as a consequence of the fix above, engines imported from the browser can again only use “Open in this tab” / ”Open in new tab” as click behaviours.
- Fixed being able to change the name of engines imported from the browser, and therefore breaking them.
3.47.0
- Added support for groups of engines (click a group to search using all engines contained within). [Thanks to Igor Costa!]
- [feature removed in fix; see above]
- Mitigated problem causing “Discard on open” engines to sometimes not having time to search before the tab got discarded.
- Minor cosmetic and text changes/fixes in settings page.
- Minor changes to default search engines.
- Minor fix for the Google Translate default search engine.
