[lojban] Re: Mozilla search plugin for Lojban dictionary

[Chris Capel <lojban-out@lojban.org>]

Another viable option is to create a bookmark of the appropriate
lojban dictionary entry page (or natlang translation page) and use the
"keyword" feature of firefox along with variable substitution. It
works like this:

1) Create a bookmark of http://lojban.org/jbovlaste/dict/broda and
right-click and edit it in bookmark manager.
2) Replace "broda" in the bookmark with "%s".
3) Put in a keyword, such as "loj", in the keyword field.

Now when you type "loj gerku" into the address bar of firefox, you'll
get the entry for gerku.

The same approach will work for natlang entries of the dictionary, and
probably other parts too.
