Here's how it helps. It shortens what you have to type to open thosr repositories and takes your search string and puts it in the search field of the repository and hits submit for you after you run surfraw-add-path -add as a normal user. It adds code to your start up files so you need to reboot once to use it. After that, try typing surfraw --elvi|less and find out what comes up on the screen.
