I have the web search & Firefox bookmarks plugins installed. I saw

:
"The web search plug-in in conjunction with the Firefox bookmarks
plug-in
is nuts - you can use all of your Firefox keyword searches at your
Quicksilver fingertips."
I was just wondering, is this still true of Quicksilver, can I still
do
Firefox keyword searches within Quicksilver? If so, how do I go about
calling up that item in Quicksilver? Thanks! 🙂
The format for Firefox’s data changes now and then so I don’t know
the current state. Personally, I’ve been keeping all of my bookmarks
and web searches in QS for years because
1. That’s how I’m going to access them anyway
2. It doesn’t matter which browser I use or if I switch browsers,
etc. (I’ve actually been using Browser Fairy, which I highly
recommend.)
FYI, for bookmarks I just have an HTML file that I update by hand.
It’s just a list of links like this:
<a href="https://developer.apple.com/";>Apple Developer Program</a>
<a href="http://awesome-python.com/";>Awesome Python</a>
Then just add a custom File & Folder Scanner catalog entry with these
properties:
* The path to your HTML file
* Include contents: HTML Links
* Omit source item
