Extension summary

Easily open links in new tabs by double clicking rather than right clicking on the link and then clicking "Open link in new tab". Very handy tool for googling and general searching.

Doesn't currently work on MacOS! Sorry Apple!

Any feedback or advice is very much appreciated, thanks in advance!
