Search faster with indicators
A special feature of the Forestle search plugin is that you can use indicators to access numerous search functions. For example you can type "wikipedia::Donald Duck" to do a Wikipedia search instead of a web search.
Please be careful to type the indicators exactly how they are written in the table below. Don't type a space character between the indicator and the two colons. Also the indicator should always be written at the beginning of your query.
