in reply to Super search use DuckDuckGo link broken

It appears that typing ddg://anything in the search box sends you to The Monastery Gates. I'm not sure if that's the problem the base note is complaining about.

90% of every Perl application is already written.

    You can no longer use the search box to redirect off site. This was a security fix.

    It still works in posts, however ddg://Perl, for example.

    And in-site links should still work, even in the search box. id://381608, for example.

      If you still need to find out how a link will be translated by PerlMonks, you can use handlelinks xml generator with the link query parameter containing the shortcut.

      map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
