Re: Create FireFox search plugin for arbitrary web site

This is great.

I wonder if there is some way to automate the output file, instead of having to type the path to the filename explicitly. I believe you can get away with a hardcoded path in Windows, but is it different for Linux?

Yes, there is. The best way is to make a personal wrapper for the script: linux: `#!/bin/sh perl mksp.pl $1 $2 > ~/.mozilla/firefox/YOURPROFILE/searchplugins/$1.x +ml` [download] windows: `REM windows batch file perl mksp.pl %1 %2 > PATH\TO\YOUR\PROFILE\searchplugins\%1.xml` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
