Highlight similar words on the page. (on double tap/click)

Avoids all the extra Ctrl+F/command+F or whatever it is required in your OS (:-P) for performing search for text in the webpage.

Just select the text in the page, plugin automatically highlights similar texts on the page!

Note that, it's still in beta stage of development. Sometimes might give erroneous outputs/selections. Refrain from installing if you do lots of code copy pastes etc
