HowTo Integrate the Doxygen as a search engine in Firefox
From OpenFOAMWiki
If you are using the the Doxygen documentation almost as often as the mighty Google you might find it convenient to have the doxygen-docu handy as a "search engine" in your Firefox:
- Install the "Ad To Searchbar" plugin and restart the browser
- Surf to the Doxygen that you usually use
- Right click on the textbox that is used for searching there and select "Add to search bar"
- In the Window that pops up select an appropriate title and (if you want the "eye candy" one of these Icons (as appropriate for your OF-version):
(You've got to safe them to disk first of course)
- Klick OK
Now you can search the Doxygen by selecting the "search engine" in the search-dropdown and typing for instance fvMesh enter return and get beamed to the search results
Notes:
- It is my impression, that the response time (time after pressing return) is much smaller using this method than using the regular page, but I could be mistaken (and I don't know what could be the reason for this)
- The plugin can be used for any other search page. The only exception I found is the MessageBoard
