Turns out this extension can be made to work on firefox with some very trivial changes (see the last commit - 5817b3f ).

…g. Ctrl), but that modifier key is not in use by LiuChan, LiuChan would still try to interpret the key. For example, user wishes to copy (Ctrl+C) some text, does not have Ctrl as a modifier key. Then LiuChan would (before this fix) interpret the pressed C to copy the dictionary text, when really user expects the behaviour of Ctrl+C not to be changed.

Since I'm not sure if you're still maintaining this extension or if you're interested in maintaining a firefox version yourself, I went ahead and published this on the Firefox add-on marketplace at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/liuchan/ if you want to maintain it yourself let me know.

Awesome, happy to hear you're still maintaining this! Note for firefox support that this pull request only covers desktop firefox; I tried getting it working on firefox for android (which should in principle be implementable; this similar extension https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/zhongwen-chinese-english/ works on firefox) but it was a pain to debug as there are a few features missing in android ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Differences_between_desktop_and_Android ) so getting full firefox support (including android) may be a bit more work than this pull request suggests.
