Directly search makandra notes from the Firefox address bar

There is no need for an addon any more, see this card

The speed searching for makandra notes in Firefox can be improved by following these steps:

Download the Firefox-Add-on "Add to Search Bar" Show archive.org snapshot and install it
Go to the makandra notes search box and press the right mouse button to open the context menu
Click "Add to Search Bar ..." and give it a name like "makandra notes" and a keyword like "n" or "notes"

Now you can type notes my search keywords into the firefox address bar and it will automatically search for the requested keywords on the makandra notes page.

Note: You can use this plugin with other (search) fields, too, if there is no "opensearch.xml" for it.
