What is Text Customizer?
Text Customizer is a Chrome extension designed to enhance your web browsing experience. With it, you can define rules to find and replace text on any webpage.

Extension summary
This extension runs through webpages, applying your find and replace rules. You can define rules in the extension's options page. They simply consist in :
- Match : either a string or a regular expression
- Replacement : either a string or a function that receives arguments (node, match), where 'node' is the DOM node in which there was a match and 'match' the result array (as returned by RegExp.prototype.exec())
So you can simply find/replace strings ('keyboard' -> 'leopard' for instance) or take it to another level and use custom functions to apply CSS to substrings, move them through the DOM and so forth.
You can configure the extension through the extensions page (chrome://extensions/)

Открывает окно в другой вкладке, не в той же( Это неудобно, т.к. есть сайты с которых морока просто скопировать выделенный текст, но ещё можно перетаскивать в вкладке выделенный текст мышью. Насколько оно работает - не проверил.
похоже, уже ничего не работает (
It does not take effect when I replace it with an empty character.
