About this extension
This extension allows users to set aliases (or shorthands) for websites.

These aliases can then be used in the search bar by typing "goto" followed by the alias. For example: "goto myAlias."

Features:
  • Automatic sorting of aliases
  • Adding, updating, and deleting aliases
  • Navigating using aliases directly in the search bar
  • "Fuzzy search" for aliases, enabling the correct alias to be found even with minor typos!
  • Link-parameters

Link Parameters
Aliases can now make use of link-parameters:
  • {0}: the alias
  • {n}: the n-th parameter
  • {@}: all parameters after the alias
Examples:
  • alias: reddit
  • link: reddit.com/r/{1}
  • input: goto reddit funny
This will open the link https://reddit.com/r/funny
  • alias: g
  • link: google.com/search?q={@}
  • input: goto g how many planets are there in the solar system
This will open the link google.com/search?q=how%20many%20planets%20are%20there%20in%20the%20solar%20system
