OmniWeb 4.1 has a more flexible shortcuts mechanism that will allow you 
to enter URLs like:

	google galeon

which will take you to google and search on "galeon".


The way it works is that if you enter a URL string with a space in it, 
we take the portion up to the space and use that as the shortcut name 
and the remainder as a value to be plugged into whatever shortcut we 
find (assuming we find one - otherwise things work the same as they 
always have).

Such shortcuts have to have a trailing "@" in the name, to distinguish 
them from shortcuts that don't take parameters.

Example shortcut definitions:

	Name	Destination
	google	http://www.google.com/advanced_search
	google@	http://www.google.com/search?q=%@

For the above shortcuts, you could enter "google" in the URL field to go 
to google's advanced search page, or "google galeon" to perform a basic 
search for "galeon".


(And no, I don't know when OmniWeb 4.1 will be released. :-)
