Pentadactyl: "I'm Feeling Lucky" searches
What?
Perform "I'm Feeling Lucky" Google searches in the current tab or in a new tab with s or S, respectively.
Why?
By default, s and S for Google searches are redundant, since set defsearch=google allows Google searches with o and t.
How? (Linux instructions)
1) Save to ~/.mozilla/firefox/YOURPROFILE.default/searchplugins/google-ssl.xml
2) Set the keyword for the search engine
Open Firefox.
:set guioptions+=TSearch bar icon --> Manage Search Engines.
I'm Feeling Lucky (SSL) --> Edit Keyword --> s --> OK
3) Edit ~/.pentadactylrc
nmap -builtin s :open s<Space>
nmap -builtin S :tabopen s<Space>
4) Restart Firefox.
