A co-worker (Jared Rhine) pointed me to Yubnub.org a while back. I
have grown addicted to it as a Internet command-line to jump straight
to what I want. E.g. I use a command like "thes addicted" to quickly
find thesaurus matches: absorbed, accustomed, attached... :)
There was one IETF-related yubnub command already and I added two more
very simple ones.
To jump to an RFC: rfc xxxx
e.g. 'rfc 2822' (don't forget space)
Internet-Draft Database Search: (shows list with filename substring
match): ids keyword
e.g. 'ids dusseault' to find draft-dusseault-caldav-08, but not
draft-ietf-webdav-rfc2518bis because 'dusseault' isn't in the title of
that one
To jump to a WG charter: wg wgname
e.g. 'wg imapext'
Not only do I get to avoid the thesaurus.com web form to find thesaurus
matches, I also avoid the Yubnub Web form because I've set up Firefox
so that I can type a Yubnub command line right into the address bar.
Other possibilities include using the search engine field or a console
app <http://www.yubnub.org/documentation/describe_installation>.
Fun, fun. Hope it's useful to you too. Let me know if you create
other IETF-related command lines. I'll blog about it or something so
as not to spam people again.
