shortcuts to bookmarks.
I maintain a bookmarks file in a format borrowed from uzbl long ago when
I switched to surf. It's formatted like
<url> <title>\t[:<shortcut> ][<tag1> [<tag2>]]
e.g.
http://suckless.org suckless :s code
http://dwm.suckless.org suckless :dwm code
http://surf.suckless.org surf browser code
http://st.suckless.org st terminal emulator code
http://%s.suckless.org suckless :sl code good
https://startpage.com/do/search?query=%s :default
https://startpage.com/do/search?query=%s :sp
then, my SETURI invokes a script that does one of
- return the URI corresponding to a shortcut, if the first argument is a
shortcut (substituting the rest of the arguments for %s in the URI),
- return the `:default` URI with all arguments (i.e. $@) substituted for
%s,
- return the argument itself if it's an URI.
I have also some tooling for filtering on tags (rather than shortcuts),
stripping domains, etc. I may find some time to organise them in a
public repo if anyone is interested.
On a side note: thanks for continuing the work on surf! I'm still on the
old branch but will switch to wk2 very soon.
cheers
