There are some ways to refine the results in the Firefox adress bar, in case you already know what you are looking for. I mainly use * + and % :
Add ^ to search for matches in your browsing history.
Add * to search for matches in your bookmarks.
Add + to search for matches in pages you've tagged.
Add % to search for matches in your currently open tabs.
Add ~ to search for matches in pages you've typed.
Add # to search for matches in page titles.
Add @ to search for matches in web addresses (URLs).
Edit: it looks as if one can search for the input by prepending a ? to it. This will hide any other (local) results from the omnibar, giving easy keyboard access (by direction keys) to the list of search engines at the end of the list.
- lioeters 7y agoWow I didn't know about these, thanks for the info! I found the complete list documented here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/address-bar-autocomplete-firefox#w_changing-results-on-the-fly https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/address-bar-autocomplet...
- _Microft 7y agoYes, this must be the source that I got the list from. I have not memorised the more obscure filters and have this list sitting on my desktop for easy access.
