Niall has created a quick Opensearch file to add the PHP Function search to the search bar of Firefox 2 And IE7. If anyone is interested it’s available here.
For those that don’t know, this feature has existing in KDE in multiple forms for some time. For example, pressing ALT-F2 opens the Run Command dialog and typing, for example:
php:fopen
will bring up PHP.net’s own search page. The same goes for the location bar in Konqueror.
By the way, other nice short cuts in the Run Command dialog include:
-
gg: <keywords>for a quick Google search; -
wp: <keywords>for a quick Wikipedia search; -
dict: <keyword>for a quick dictionary look-up; -
man: <keyword>for a man page look-up; -
info: <keyword>for an info page look-up; -
rfc: <number>to be brought to the relevant RFC page;
Of course, entering a command will execute it and just entering a URL will open it in Konqueror.
