BT yubnub command broken!

scatch...@gmail.com (scatchell@gmail.com) — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 17:27:17 UT

I've tried typing something along the lines of "bt test" to search bit
torrent for the word "test" but the link is broken. This command line
needs to be updated to a torrentz.com query or something and I do not
know how to do it.

Fixing this should be easy and would be much more useful - broken

YubNub Clones and Other Rousings

gome...@gmail.com (gomelet) — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 02:30:49 UT

Recently, I wrote a series of articles on the YubNub clones. It was
interesting to contrast how the idea of the social command line is
spreading. My blog is totally unofficial, but covers YubNub commands
and related topics:

mw command is broken

mythtel...@gmail.com (Aaron) — Sun, 14 Sep 2008 02:41:49 UT

Merriam-Webster recently switched to a more RESTful API. The mw
command's URL should be changed to [link].

Possible Replacement for "rss" Command Called "scrapefeed"

Read above and you'll see that I was a bit presumptuous in writing the
man page for the rss2 command. I am planning on having that fixed
soon, but wanted to tell the Group about what might be a better
replacement for the rss command which still points to the defunct

Re: Integration with Launchy

brentro...@gmail.com (rowanrook) — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 15:15:34 UT

I tried the suggested plugin to Launchy called Yubby. It did not work
for me... I believe it is for an earlier version of Launchy. Anyway,
you can instead set YubNub as the default search engine via the Weby
plugin. Just go

Options > Plugins > Weby > + >

then in Name I put y and URL I put

Does twiu work?

itai.f...@gmail.com (itai) — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 02:00:37 UT

I can't get twiu (Twitter status update) to work, but the fault could
be mine (or rather, my browser's). Could some Twitter user please give
it a try?

Candidate for golden egg (shameless plug)

Google search command stacking.

creddy.e...@gmail.com (CrEddy) — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 01:54:14 UT

Hi Jon.

While writing the "g++" command, I realised it's possible to stack
commands by progressively adding URL components. It's possible to
have one command that turns safesearch off, one that increases the
number of results, one that turns completion on and one that turns
"browse by name" on.

gimf - golden egg?

shantanu....@gmail.com (shantanuo) — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 06:36:30 UT

Someone has added "gimf" that searches Google images using its face
recognition setting thats unavailable through the normal options.
Golden egg nomination.
