Searching

Simple to search on whatever you want.

@ <keyword> <search_query>

keyword: is the short version of the web site's name. search_query: search query, nothing special. Just I need to mention here it'll be encoded.

Change Default Search Engine

Simple to change default search engine.

@ !<keyword>

Adding a search engine

Adding search engine to smartbox is simple. Please just type:

@ +<keyword> <site_name> <url>

keyword: is the short-name of the web site site_name: is the name of the web site url: can be similar to this one: "https://example.com/search?q="

Removing a search engine

Removing a search engine from database as simple as adding one. Please just type:

@ -<keyword>

keyword: is the short-name of the web site.

Listing all available search engines

There're 2 options you can try to list all of them. The first one is:

@ .

You can list just specific amount of them by typing "?".

The other one is my favorite. You can quickly review what's available in comma seperated form. Try:

@ ...

Which one is better?

Importing, Exporting and Adding sites

Importing, easily pasting prepared JSON array of search engines...

@ <= <json_array>

Exporting, easly while on omnibox. :D

@ >=

Adding array of search engines, it's now easier. :D

@ +<= <json_array>
