Bookmarks for surf

Description

This script enables bookmarks, url handlers, and history (find and url entries) for surf. NB: This script obviates the need to patch surf at all with, e.g., the history or the url handlers patches!

Keybindings

^I (get some information)
^b (bookmark current url with given tags)
^g (open url with bookmark autocompletion)
^G (open url without bookmark autocompletion)

URL handlers

This script implements several url handlers
"d " (bookmark current url in delicious)
"t " (create tinyurl from current page)
"w word .." (lookup word in wikipedia)
"g word .." (google for given word)
"y word .." (search in youtube)
"x word .." (remove an entry from the bookmarks file)

# Much thanks to nibble and pancake who have a different surf.sh script available which
# doesn't do the history bit.
#
# this script does:
# * stores history of: (1) successful uri entries; (2) certain smart prefix entries, e.g., "g foobar"; (3) find entries
# * direct bookmark (via ^b)
# * information debug (via ^I)
# * smart prefixes e.g. g for google search, t for tinyurl, etc.
# * delete (with smart prefix x)
#
# $1 = $xid
# $2 = $p = _SURF_FIND _SURF_BMARK _SURF_URI (what SETPROP sets in config.h)
#
# // replace default setprop with this one
# #define SETPROP(p) { .v = (char *[]){ "/bin/sh", "-c", "surf.sh $0 $1 $2", p, q, winid, NULL } }
#
# { MODKEY, GDK_b, spawn, SETPROP("_SURF_BMARK") },

# { MODKEY|GDK_SHIFT_MASK, GDK_g, spawn, SETPROP("_SURF_URI_RAW") },
