The Quick Word Meaning Searching Thingamajig

Ever since definr came out, I’ve been using it religiously for any and every word meaning related doubt I’ve had. It’s really good and fast, and keeps my Google Search history clean :) But the problem I’ve always faced is going to the site and typing in my word. Too much work. So I cooked up this quick Greasemonkey script to handle that situation.

Sits nicely in the corner until called!

The script adds a tiny box to the bottom-left corner, which stays 3/4th hidden away, until you focus on it. Focus is through a click, or using the shortcut Shift + Alt + S. Wait for a second after you’ve finished typing, and it’ll start searching. Definr being as fast as it is, the results will show up almost immediately. Click anywhere else, and everything will get tucked away. It’s simple :)

Nothing more to say. You’ll have to use it to like it. Enjoy!

I’d really like not to depend on a 4th party for my 3rd party needs :P Not one which requires me to click through to another site anyway …

You can use all presentational tags, but I prefer if you use Markdown. It's just easier to use.
