The older versions of firefox actually allowed the end user to use any website they wanted for search engine results. A user could then type into the address bar - not the search bar - and get results from whatever search engine they wanted.

Today, the end user MUST use the search bar - even though most users only use the address bar. This seems like a false attempt to employ new search engines.

Lastly, the end user is forced to use the selected search engines, which all yield relatively similar results.

Frankly, I love FF, but I'm going to switch to whichever browser allows me to use good gopher. Thank you for listening.

You can add the search engine from any site. Open the browser to the web site. Press the icon in the Firefox search box. At the bottom of the list you should see the option to add that site.
