Yeah, that's where the discussion started, how to do that or something comparable with more ease. Seems to me that there ought to be an easier mechanism for putting something like that into my firefox search engine menu. Alternatives seem to be 1) quick search/keyword - requires a search box on a web page, http://marc.info/?l=fedora-list&r=1&w=2 would do. But you have to remembver the keyword and type in the URL box. 2) mycroft extension - someone needs to rtfm and hack one together, I may do so if I pass the motivation horizon 3) just type advanced search terms into the google box, or maybe save that url as a bookmark I've been doing #3, but I'm lazy and it seems like an annoyance. I just found a firefox extension (SmartSearch) that lets you use right-click to get to keyword searches, that may be just the thing: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/188 I'm also looking at imacros (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3863), it promises firefox automation in general, should have a way to speed up keyword search setup.
