I tend to bounce back and forth between Sleipnir2 (now at v2.47), Sleipnir 1.66, Maxthon (back burner until v2.0 exits tight-lipped alpha-beta whatever-they-are-calling-it stage), and GreenBrowser (my current favorite, no "about:blank" 'empty' tab and other "minor" cosmetic "deficiencies" that distract in other browsers)... (yeah, and an occasional Portable Firefox [but I shall deny having said that out loud, lol], Acoo, Avant, Tablane, and SlimBrowser)...


The "search field" of many browsers (most are Google by default, if not customizable to make Google the default) allows for "alias searching"...

For example, set up the letter "i" as an alias to perform image searches instead of web searches when inserting "i proxomitron" into the search field...

Unfortunately, with so many browsers, it becomes tedious to add a new alias to each browser... So why not let my one constant among all browsers (that being Proxo) do that aliasing for me, lol...



ps - why does the "code" forum command EAT \'s ???
