Firefox: Search in the address bar

On some Linux distributions engine that comes by default may not be your favorite.
In my case I'm currently using Linux Mint comes DuckDuckGo! Therefore need to be questioned! that crappy search engine! Damn I do not know, but polls are by far the ones I would expect!

The worst is that I'm so attached to search through the address bar, I had to go to the fight! : P

They get to know that can change this default engine, putting in the address bar this: about: config -> confirm that it wants to move forward -> search for "keyword.URL" -> give 2 clicks -> put the text box "https://www.google.pt/search?q =" (without quotes). And thus stay with your favorite engine. In this example I used Google, but could be any other.

I chose just because CA has a native version for Linux that unlike Adobe Lightroom with your forgot this world!

This tool combines the best features of Lightroom and Apple Aperture and a very competitive price. At the time of this writing the price (promotional) was € 39.99. Look
