One such feature is <emphasis ->Web Shortcuts</emphasis ->.</para> - -<para ->You may already have noticed that &kde; is very Internet friendly. For example, you can click on the <guimenuitem ->Run</guimenuitem -> menu item or type the keyboard shortcut assigned to that command (<keycombo action="simul" -><keycap ->Alt</keycap -><keycap ->F2</keycap -></keycombo ->, unless you have changed it) and type in a <acronym ->URI</acronym ->. <footnote -><para ->Uniform Resource Identifier.

For example, if you like the Google search engine, you can configure KDE so that a pseudo <acronym ->URL</acronym -> scheme like <emphasis ->gg</emphasis -> will trigger a search on Google. This way, typing <userinput ->gg:<replaceable ->my query</replaceable -></userinput -> will search for <replaceable ->my query</replaceable -> on Google.</para> - -<note -><para ->One can see why we call these pseudo <acronym ->URL</acronym -> schemes. They are used like a <acronym ->URL</acronym -> scheme, but the input is not properly <acronym ->URL</acronym -> encoded, so one will type <userinput ->google:kde apps</userinput -> and not <userinput ->google:kde+apps</userinput ->.</para -></note> - -<para ->You can use web shortcuts wherever you would normally use <acronym ->URI</acronym ->s. Shortcuts for several search engines should already be configured on your system, but you can add new keywords and change or delete existing ones in the enhanced browsing control module. </para> - -</sect2> - -<sect2 id="ebrowse-use"> - -<title ->Use</title> - -<para ->There is a single tab in this control module. The title of the tab is <guilabel ->Keywords</guilabel ->.

As with other lists in &kde;, you can click on a column heading to toggle the sort order between ascending and descending, and you can resize the columns.</para> - -<para ->If you double-click on a specific entry in the list of defined search providers, the details for that entry are shown in a popup dialogue. In addition to the descriptive name for the item, you can also see the <acronym ->URI</acronym -> which is used, as well as the associated shortcuts which you can type anywhere in &kde; where <acronym ->URI</acronym ->s are expected. A given search provider can have multiple shortcuts, each separated by a comma.</para> - -<para ->The text boxes are used not only for displaying information about an item in the list of web shortcuts, but also for modifying or adding new items.</para> - -<para ->You can change the contents of either the <guilabel ->Search URI</guilabel -> or the <guilabel ->URI Shortcuts</guilabel -> text box. Click <guibutton ->OK</guibutton -> to save your changes or <guibutton ->Cancel</guibutton -> to exit the dialogue with no changes.</para> - -<para ->If you examine the contents of the <guilabel ->Search URI</guilabel -> text box, you will find that most, if not all of the entries have a <option ->\{@}</option -> in them. This sequence of two characters acts as a parameter, which is to say that they are replaced by whatever you happen to type after the colon character that is between a shortcut and its parameter. Let's consider some examples to clarify this idea.</para> - -<para ->Suppose that the <acronym ->URI</acronym -> is <userinput ->http://www.google.com/search?q=\{@}</userinput ->, and <userinput ->gg</userinput -> is a shortcut to this <acronym ->URI</acronym ->. Then, typing <userinput ->gg:<replaceable ->alpha</replaceable -></userinput -> is equivalent to <userinput ->http://www.google.com/search?q=<replaceable ->alpha</replaceable -></userinput ->. You could type anything after the <userinput ->:</userinput -> character; whatever you have typed simply replaces the <option ->\{@}</option -> characters, after being converted to the appropriate character set for the search provider and then properly <acronym ->URL</acronym ->-encoded. Only the <option ->\{@}</option -> part of the search <acronym ->URI</acronym -> is touched, the rest of it is supposed to be properly <acronym ->URL</acronym ->-encoded already and is left as is.</para> - -<para ->You can also have shortcuts without parameters. Suppose the <acronym ->URI</acronym -> was <emphasis ->file:/home/me/mydocs/kofficefiles/kword</emphasis -> and the shortcut was <emphasis ->mykword</emphasis ->. Then, typing <userinput ->mykword:</userinput -> is the same as typing the complete <acronym ->URI</acronym ->. Note that there is nothing after the colon when typing the shortcut, but the colon is still required in order for the shortcut to be recognised as such.</para> - -<para ->By now, you will have understood that even though these shortcuts are called web shortcuts, they really are shortcuts to parameterised <acronym ->URI</acronym ->s, which can point not only to web sites like search engines but also to anything else that can be pointed to by a <acronym ->URI</acronym ->. Web shortcuts are a very powerful feature of navigation in &kde;.</para> - -</sect3> - -</sect2> - -</sect1> - -</article>
