Feature request: Remove Google from menu, but add to context menu

#1 Feature request: Remove Google from menu, but add to context menu

I still do not see the benefit of having a google search box in a menu, but what I really like to see is selecting a text -> right mouse click -> search "function foo(..." in Google. Of course it should be configurable which search engine is used.

You can configure Help for language (Alt+F1) to use Google search for selected word (Highlighter settings / Specification tab for PHP). And the final you can change shortcut Alt+F1 to another one if it doesn't fit to you.

Nice to know, but through the context menu its much more the usual way as it is in the OS where you right click a file to send it by e-mail or selecting a word in the browser to search for it in bing, google or use the dictionary, etc.

Maybe you can think about that.

Right click / Help for language tongue sticking out smiley
Simple fill in google search url into highlighter settings.
Use variable %word% or %seltext% to specify search string

"Warning
External hel for PHP isn't assigned.
Go to ..."

In Highlighters Setting -> PHP -> External Application I added:

Name
Chrome

Application:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" "https://www.google.de/search?q=%SelText%"

Any other setting needed?

In case you use HTML multihighlighter and not PHP highlighter, set it to the base highlighter for multihighlighter.
If you didn't changed it set it to HTML highlighter.
