I just submitted a proposal to DuckDuckGo here for a new "bang" for their search syntax. If approved: !coddee search_term will trigger the following URL: https://electrical.codidact.com/posts/se...

  • I just submitted a proposal to DuckDuckGo [here](https://duckduckgo.com/newbang) for a new "bang" for their search syntax. If approved:
  • `!coddee search_term`
  • will trigger the following URL:
  • `https://electrical.codidact.com/posts/search?search=search_term`
  • I did the same for SW Development Codidact.
  • I chose the prefix `codd` because it was not taken and no existing bang begins with that prefix, so that if someone wants to propose bangs for other Codidact sites, they could use the same prefix. For example `coddphoto` for Photography or `coddphy` for Physics.
  • Hope this helps a bit.

I did the same for SW Development Codidact.

I chose the prefix `codd` because it was not taken and no existing bang begins with that prefix, so that if someone wants to propose bangs for other Codidact sites, they could use the same prefix. For example `coddphoto` for Photography or `coddphy` for Physics.

Hope this helps a bit.
