How to send selected link to application via context menu?

procopaeus opened this issue · 1 comments

So I'm trying to emulate my use of this extension the same way I used "Open With", which works in all pages without any complicated set up.

I use it with yt-dlp to download music/video and I wanna be able to select a link (not right click) as text in any page and open context menu to send to my application. I usually do this from any website or pages like data:text/html, <html contenteditable>, where I save temporary links from Instagram stories so I can download them. I was able to make the context menu show on data: and text selections, but when I right click nothing happens.

Is this feasible? I use Chrome btw, but can try on FF too.

This is my current config, what should I change?
