Hi, Just downloaded this extension. Highlighting and colour system ideal. From historical posts I see there have been different versions. I would be giving this a 5 star if I could bracket multiple words in one colour (for similarity). Example: 'One, Two, Three' ...all in one colour and 'Water, Fire, Earth' again in the same 'group colour'? I was hoping to use the same keywords in this fashion on multiple documents. Therefore is there anyway (maybe on my own separate spreadsheet) I could copy/paste words into the search over a period of time? Is this possible? I already tried using _ , and just a space to no avail. Great work though! TY Update! Excellent feedback from the developer, his assistance below has given me EXACTLY what I wanted/needed for my project. Thank you!! FIVE STAR UPGRADE
