Работает как часы! Смог наконец-то понадобавлять нужные мне системы поиска, которые Firefox по умолчанию за таковые не считает
Far too ridiculously complex! Why not just make it SIMPLE to export?! Geez :(
Nicely made and well documented. The best - perhaps only - "workaround" for the now broken open-search-xml engines
