This is a simple search assistant extension.  One of the drawbacks of Google Chrome's find option (CTRL-F) is that text from the web page can not simply selected for the search.
The user is required to select the text, copy it, launch the find bar, and then paste the text in order to find the text on the page.  

This extension makes this process easier.


Double click text on a page and then right mouse click and choose "Find Selected" under the ezSearch context menu -or- click the hot key CTRL-Shift-Z (configurable) to find the text.

After that, Choose "Find Next" under the ezSearch context menu or click the hot key CTRL-Shift-X (configurable) to continue the find.


User configurable options for the search include:

Match Case - when selected, the exact case of the selection will be used on the find

Wrap Search - when selected, the search will wrap to the top of the page 

Whole Word - when selected, the entire selection must match compared to just the beginning portion

Trim White space from Selection - when selected, beginning and ending white space from the selected text will be trimmed
