Emulate Firefox's type-ahead search in Safari
Authored by: hankk on Dec 21, '07 10:09:30AM

Very cool -- thanks!

You can also set this up to be an equivalent to Firefox's Find Next key -- e.g.

defaults write com.apple.safari NSUserKeyEquivalents -dict-add "Find Next" N

which makes 'N' go to the next-found search match (F3 in Safari, but N is easier to hit). A small difference is that Safari's Find puts the focus in the text search box, so you need to hit Escape to get out of that before hitting N. At that point I suppose you've hit two keys and you may as well just have hit Safari's default Apple-G, so perhaps this is all moot.
