Run Google 'lucky' searches from Firefox URL bar
Seems people are trying too hard to do something too simple. In case one we find a search string somewhere we want to use at Google; we select it and copy it to the clipboard; then we fire up our browser and jiggle with it to get a text field available; then we paste in the search string; then away we go. In case two we simply find the search string anywhere; select it; hit a predefined keyboard combination; and we're already there. These programs are free and will do everything but put the keyboard shortcut in. But that's easy enough to do on your own: simply find an app that's already on your Services menu and has a keyboard shortcut and check its Info.plist. All you have to do is copy in something like the following under the NSMenuItem for your 'I'm Lucky' service.
And yes, the 'I'm Lucky' service looks like this. With the above programs you just add it and then save and your Services menu is automatically updated. www.google.com/search?btnI=I'm+Feeling+Lucky&q= |
