by Firefox user 13788560, 7 years agoI always used the vocabulary highlighter, so I am really happy to discover this add-on. But I have a problem, the restriction of three characters for the word we could highlight. For example I want to highlight this word: 六木
and add the description box: Mutsuki. But it is not possible with this add-on, could you do something about this?

Indeed there's no good reason to restrict the word length, so I removed the restriction - please update to the newest version.
One thing: while testing the change, I noticed that it doesn't work with alphabets other than English. I hastily added support for Japanese, Chinese and Russian, but I'm not sure it works very well (it may have problems detecting where one word ends and another begins). If you encounter any issues, please report them via https://github.com/ainzzorl/wordhighlighter/issues.
