Firefox keywords and Trac

Going firmly in the 'you learn something new every day' bracket... Karen just pointed the office in the direction of Mozilla keywords. Combined with Trac they mean you can type things like trac 705 into the Firefox location bar and get transported to ticket 705 on your trac instance. Enormously useful when people keep mentioning "#705" in IRC rather than pasting the link.

  • Add a new bookmark to your Firefox bookmarks for (say) https://projects.isotoma.com/forkd/ticket/%s
  • Give it a keyword (in my case tforkd)
  • Type tforkd 705 into your Firefox location bar
  • Voila!
