> :why Because Devdas uses vimperator with Google?? I don't think they mix well. and I had to disable vimium in order to use this one. they don't mix well...

I'm on Fedora 17 trying it on Chrome. Only the ":command"s work. Tried to email feedback as per instructions but receive this alert:

Sorry your feedback could not be send :-( Please try again.

Works fine on Firefox but the feedback functionality is broken there too.

I tried leaving some feedback but apparently "Sorry your feedback could not be send[sic] :-( Please try again."

Would be awesome to have a command like _ that opens the first result in the last batch.

Otherwise, kudos, this is amazing!

(Oh, I got the emails for my feedback though, so maybe it worked after all)

Anyone remember Google shell [ http://goosh.org/ ], similar idea. Now what I really want is an xterm that can render HTML/CSS. That way I can interleave my unix dweebry with outputs that use a modern display language.

I think this might be more useful the other way around. Put ddg inside a linux shell and let me interoperate with linux commands. eg. ddg reviews samsung note | grep "note 2"

There's a unix utility called "surfraw" that does this. I don't know if it support DDG yet, but it's very cool.

I've pushed some changes out for this. I'd appreciate if you could confirm it works as expected now.
