By installing the Forestle search plugin, you can add the Forestle search to your browser so that you don't need to visit the Forestle starting page every time you want to search. To install the Forestle search plugin, please click this link.
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.
