Am I missing something?
Authored by: houplagrundle on Apr 30, '04 03:19:32PM

I just open the History tab in the bookmarks window, click the triangles next to the day so I can see all the sites and do a search with command-F like searching a normal web page.

Yes, I use Command-F to search the history also, but you don't even have to click the triangle. Command-F searches the entire history file and expands as it goes. The only problem is that you have to clean after it because it doesn't collapse the arrows.


The coolest thing about this is that it takes regular expressions, which command-F doesn't.

Incidentally, you can also use it to search your bookmarks, by changing the file to Bookmarks.plist. You could easily modify this script to support either or both.
