Hi all,
As I'm sure you're all aware, you can type various keywords into the
firefox address bar and have it do useful things:
imdb <search string>
google <search string>
webster <search string>
dict <search string>
and so on.
With RHEL4, the default target for google was changed from the Firefox
default of a regular google search to instead do a Google directory search
instead (very irritating to me).
So I went to google to try and find where the default collection of
keyword addressbar searches gets set and all I could find were pages
describing how to create bookmarks with keywords to use for later.
grep -r imdb . from within /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.2 didn't yield anything
interesting either.
Does anyone know how I can change the system wide default collection of
keyword searches?
Hugh
