Text Corrector is a contextual menu plugin. It allows you to perform some operations on selected text.

Select some text in any application and call contextual menu for selection (Ctrl-click). In Text Correction submenu select desired operation. If application supports Apple Events Model then selected text will be replaced with result of correction.

If text cannot be replaced in fly (you will hear system alert sound in that case), that means application you are using does not support Apple Events Model. But you still can use Text Corrector, because correction result is stored in Clipboard as well, so you can use Command-V and paste it anywhere you want.

TEXT SEARCH searches for occurrances of a given word or phrase in text files of a folder and all nested folders, then displays the results as hotlinks in a Safari window, sorted by number of hits per file in descending order.

If the file is of a type that Safari can render, then the file will be displayed in Safari. Otherwise, Safari prompts Finder to display the file.
