[Diary] Add Chrome right-click context menu for my online dictionary

(See the simplest way to add right-click menu to look up in customized dictionaries below - no need to code)

I want to add a right-click context menu in Chrome browser to search a selected word or phrase in my online dictionary, for example:

https://my.meonn.com/look.php?mylook=XXX
(This dictionary is for test only, not a practical one)

When I selected a word XXX in Chrome and right-click it, there will be an option to look up it in my online dictionary (URL above).

It's like 'Search Google for "XXX"' in this picture:

So I follow this tutorial Can I add right-click options in Google Chrome? to:
- Create a manifest file call "manifest.json"
- Create a html file call "yurica.html" (function script)
- Create icon files: "icon16.png" and "icon48.png"

"manifest.json"

Using Javascript to copy selected word in my online dictionary

I want some text or word selected in my online dictionary to be put in the look up input field and copied to clipboard in order to look up that new word or phrase, and to copy to my offline Trados termbase (using SDL MultiTerm).

Demo:

Input field:
Select and copy some text from here:

This is a paragraph to test using Javascript to select and copy some text or word to clipboard.

Just select some text above and it will be copied to the input field.

DEBUG: It didn't work at the first time. The reason is I put the script before my PHP engine generates my HTML content (using like "<?php print $html; ?>"). Browsers will read this Javascript before my dictionary HTML content so nothing happens. To solve this problem, I put this script at the end of my dictionary PHP file.

This is the picture of what happen (in case Javascript does not work in your environment):

My Javascript code (see below for the original tutorial):

Using SDL MultiTerm Widget to look up words

After installed SDL MultiTerm Widget, it will start each time you start Windows and its icon appears in taskbar:

Click the icon to open it:

Now you can type the word you want to look up and Enter to show the result, for example to look up 通訳 (interpret):

Is there any way to look up a word in SDL MultiTerm Widget without retyping it? Especially a word on a website?

How to create a Project Package in Trados

Here's Trados SDL's guide to Create Project Package: Create Project Package Wizard.

Use the Create Project Package wizard to create project packages that contain all of the files that need to be sent to a project team member in order for them to commence work on the project. Project packages have an extension of *sdlppx.
To display this wizard, select Project > Create Project Package from the menu bar in any view or select files in the Files view, right-click and then select Create Project Package from the shortcut menu.

Picture:

Choose a project and click 'Create Project Package' icon in Home ribbon.

However, in Freelance license, this function is disabled:

Saying "Please upgrade your license to enable this feature".

I did search about licensing: About Editions and Licensing

Freelance
SDL Trados Studio 2009 Freelance is different from the Professional version in the following ways:
You can only work with five languages. You cannot change your language selections later.
You can use AutoSuggest dictionaries but you cannot create them.
NOTE
If you want to create AutoSuggest dictionaries, a separate AutoSuggest license enables you to do this.
You cannot use SDL Trados Studio 2009 Freelance on a computer that is part of a domain-based corporate network.
You can open and work with project packages but you cannot create them. You can create return packages to return your completed work.
You cannot create custom task sequences.

You must have a Professional license to create Project Packages.

By the way, price of SDL Trados Studio 2019 (Single User) at this momment is 2,495 Euros at SDL Trasos Store.

How to Create Return Package in Trados

Sometimes our clients send us Trados Project Package (***.sdlppx file) for we to translate, review or fix. We must send them a Return Package.

Here's how to create a return package (***.sdlrpx file) from a project package.

1. Double click project package file (.sdlppx file) to open as a project.
2. In the left panel click 'Projects' to show all current project.
Click to choose project package.
3. In Home ribbon, there's an icon called 'Create Return Package', click it and save return package file (.sdlrpx file).

Look like this:

Project package and return package files when saved in same folder:

The project package file (.sdlppx) has an icon of an open box and green arrow pointed inside.
The return package file (.sdlrpx) has an icon of a taped closed box.
