How do I easily add this to the list of search engines in Firefox? I seem trip over this issue every time I see one of these new search engines, and I definitely want to add it to the list of search engines. Maybe my distro broke this, again.
right click in a search box then Add a keyword for this search. Press tab 3 times and type "frog" or "f" or whatever you like. Use the address bar to FrogFind things by typing "frog hacker news"
It doesn't work. ugh, I think my distro tore that feature out of Firefox with the latest update.
I may only search eBay, Bing, Amazon, and other search engines that my distro deems worthy.
That was painful.

Hi, my understanding is that with very few exceptions, if a search engine is included in Firefox it is because Mozilla and the search engine have a contract and Mozilla makes some money from the arrangement. It's hard for outsiders to know what will be added or removed in the future.

Add-ons let you add other search engines. I suspect you could do it yourself pretty easily, maybe even as a custom pref.
