Possible to autocomplete url.
« on: January 01, 2014, 08:55 AM »
Is it possible to simply type a word like mynet and hit Ctrl+Enter and it goes to browser as www.mynet.com just like auto complete in browser behavior?

you could make some aliases that would help you do this.

One option would be to make an alias that had all of your favorites websites, so you could type something like "myweb mynet" and it would filter down to www.mynet.com and launch it.
Or you could make an alias that matched any string and opened www.MYSTRING.com that could be used similarly.
Or you could try the farrfox addon for searching web bookmarks in firefox and internet explorer (requires a bit of extra work now with new versions of firefox).
