UPDATE NOTES:
  - Version 2.5/2.6 
       - Added meanings, Now you can see the meanings of the highlighted 
         word when hovering over it.
       - Added the GregMat List of words to the collection of words. So now 
         users have option to choose from 4 lists.  


KEY FEATURES:

 - You can edit your preferences and highlight words only from the list(s) of 
    your choice from the Options Page. 

 - Hover over the highlighted word to find extra information. You can also 
   click on the word to get meanings and more via Google's web dictionary.    

 - Different forms of the words are also highlighted to give you a 
    complete experience.  Eg - " Burgeoning "  ( GRE Word is "burgeon").
 

IMPORTANT :-

  - Please note that the extension does not read a webpage content without 
     you enabling it either manually or using the shortcuts

  - Kindly avoid invoking the extension on the same webpage more than 
    once. If you reload the extension, please also refresh any webpages 
    already open you want to highlight from.
  
  - The extension may take more time if the webpage is very large. 
    Consider a time of 3-4 seconds to finish highlighting for lengthy pages.

  - The extension does not scan hyperlinks to maintain the posture of the 
    webpage.

  - Deselecting a list in preferences will only omit words which are 
    exclusively in that list . Many high frequency words are 
    shared between lists.

  - The extension might not work in certain Google pages like the Home 
    page. Please refer Chrome's policy on that.
