Update of FarrFox Plugin (v1.03.01) for FARR v2 - Mar 29th, 2007

<< < (7/17) > >>

mja:
Sure - I have a lot of keywords already defined in FireFox (for example for searching Google, work site, etc.) and was wondering if it would be possible to pass in an argument to the launched bookmark, just like you would pass an argument to the keyword within FireFox. If you aren't familiar with Keywords in FireFox (although I'm sure you are) look here: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/smart-keywords.html

Hopefully this better explains my point.

mouser:
ah i understand..
so first things first, you know you can create easily regex supported aliases in FARR that will let you do this.
for example, check out the built in aliases for imdb, just type "imdb slackers" to open imdb and search for that movie.

the farr aliases are going to be faster than searching your ff bookmarks and so would usually be preferred.

however, that's not to say that it wouldnt be useful to add this support to farrfox, and it might be a nice excercise, so i will put it on my todo list.

still, i think you should consider just using normal farr aliases to do this because of the speed advantage.

mja:
Hey mouser - I create aliases for keywords that I use all of the time. I was intending to use the feature for some of the keywords that I don't use as often. The aliases within FARR are heads and tails above the Firefox keywords.
