Chrome browser does this. I don't really understand why some programs are designed to do this. It won't affect your handling of email, but usually means using huge amounts of memory.

Title: Re: Search with Google Hello Bats, Having used both Thunderbird and The Bat! back and forth, I am missing the feature available in Thunderbird in The Bat! - which is to select text in an email, and right-click to select "Search Google for...".

Search with Google
Hello Bats, Having used both Thunderbird and The Bat! back and forth, I am missing the feature available in Thunderbird in The Bat! - which is to select text in an email, and right-click to select "Search Google for...". I'd like to stay with The Bat! for so many reasons, like much lower memory usage, and also because Thunderbird is soon to become multi-process like Chrome browser. I like one process and low memory usage. Is there a way to get that Search with Google function in The Bat! ? I didn't realize just how much I use it.
