Web based Search in any program March 18, 2009
Imagine, you could highlight any text in any program and search for that term e.g. in Google, Wikipedia, Translate.com, etc., with a single keystroke.
The text expander “PhraseExpress” offers that: For example, mark an address in Word, Messenger, Excel, dBase or Dreamweaver, hit the customizable keyboard shortcut CTRL-F8 and select the desired webpage for the query in a handy popup menu.
Here is video demonstration (turn on speakers):
If this feature should not work out-of-the-box in your configuration, update to the latest PhraseExpress version and download the free add-on that offers the “Smart Search” feature.
You can also add other websites of your choice. We will show you how to do this in another video tutorial soon.
