QuickSilver and leo.dict.org
Quite a while ago I had written that I wanted a QuickSilver plugin for dict.leo.org the best and most exhaustive german-english translator. Well I was playing around with QuickSilver, I even got the plugin from the tutorial running. But I realized the easiest way is still
- launch QuickSilver
- type “l” (lower case “L”), which brings me to my Safari history for dict.leo.org, if that’s not the case in your QuickSilver, make it learn by typing “leo” and finding the right history, you must have been on the page before, of course, and the next time you type “leo” it should appear first, by the time it will do so for “L” too
- hit ENTER
- and you are right at the input field of the page
- type the word, hit ENTER
- done.

Unfortunately this works only for safari, because firefox doesn’t allow Quicksilver to check its history.
But however there is a Quicksilver-Plugin for dict.leo.org (and many other web-searches), it’s called “Web Search Module”

I just saw today, that you can also activate the Firefox history in the QuickSilver Preferences, under
Modules > Firefox > Firefox History
I don’t need it but it looks like that’s what you want.
