2020-05-25 Noob Saibot Uninstalled when the "remove highlight" didn't work. Other than that it's okay. I think it's color selector is "bloated" (to many useless colors to choose from); sometimes simple is better.
2020-04-16 alucioso Thank you very much! Thank god there's a simple web extension addon to highlight text in web pages (until a proper one appears). A tool to highlight is the simplest thing to do: insert "span background-color:#FFFF00 ..", but you can't find an editor/addon to do just this. Almost all of them can't edit previous saves, and if one does you must do things its way (no guarantees). Tested this with pages saved with SingleFile and worked!
2020-01-06 Firefox user 13717362 It got stuck on a deep orange color, so dark it was hard to read the text, and simply would not change color after I chose one on the background color popup.

2018-08-28 Firefox user 14249679 Right away I found this extension useful! It's easy to figure out and very helpful. The only thing I would add if I could was the ability to save the highlighted text to some sort of notepad for later.
2018-06-28 Firefox user 14125046 I agree with visiteur668. Excellent tool. Very usefull. Thank you. The improvment I would suggest is bar icons (or special keys stroke) in order to select/change colors and highlight selected text with a single click (as it was possible with Prostetnic highlighter... where selected colour icon indicated selected colour without the need to check from the menu). Right click menu needs at least two clicks).
