This script allows us to open a bookmarked URL on the browser, only showing the name of the website, stripping the URL from the dmenu list.
- If the URL has the word "search" in it, then the script will offer for a second dmenu for you to enter a keyword to search.
- "searxng" entry, will offer for a second input after being chosen. Then you can enter a keyword to search from that website. It can be any website with search function. So look at your bookmarks --> choose "searxng" entry --> Write a keyword and enter --> Search for that keyword on searxng.
- Otherwise it will open the website directly --> "cooking" entry can open "https://based.cooking" for example.
- We rely on the JSON data formatting to separate URLS from the names we put on websites. So we need to program "jq".
Summary: It first selects a website using dmenu, then checks if "search" is present in the URLQUERY such as "https://paulgo.io/search?q=". If "search" is present, it asks for keywords before opening the URL. If not, it directly opens the URL without asking for keywords.
