why wont any of the highlighters work bro
by Dracks Dracks, 2022-02-23

it dose not work at all.

Will highlight text and phrases and auto-assign colors, but only loads text visible on screen rather than whole page - for fast browsing and scrolling, keywords need to be highlighted for an entire page at a time rather than what is visible on the screen.
