# External Application Launcher

Use external applications through a toolbar button or context menu item.

This extension lets you create a customizable toolbar button (action button) and context menu items to execute programs with your chosen command-line arguments. For example, you can:

- Send the current page to another browser

- Send selected text to a text editor

- Send image URLs to a photo editor

- Send download links to an external download manager!
