  53   <p>Search engine file names have &quot;.search&quot; as postfix. When they are clicked, the associated bookmark files with postfix &quot;.search.html&quot; would be appended. Ex: the associated bookmark for &quot;foo.search&quot; is &quot;foo.search.html&quot;.</p>
  54 <p>Any &quot;.search&quot; file can be opened as search engine file, each line of which has one of the following formats:<br>
  55 [Engine name]:[url without '%s' inside]<br>
  56 [Engine name]:[url with '%s' as keyword]<br>
  57 [Engine name]:POST:[post params with '%s' as keyword]:[url]<br>
  58 [Engine name]:[Extra request headers]:[post params with '%s' as keyword]:[url]</p>
  59 <ul>
  60 <li>[Extra request headers] Ex. &quot;X-Forwarded-For;8.8.8.8&quot;</li>
  61 <li>when [post params] is empty, the url should have '%s' as keyword.</li>
  62 </ul>
  63 <p>Limitations (they are here for performance reasons):</p>
  64 <ul>
  65 <li>The first engine in the file must be the first type that has no '%s' in the engine url.</li>
  66 <li>Internal scheme engine urls (such as i:, d:, c:) must have '%s', since '%s' format is more general (only type 2 is allowed, since POST makes no sense for internal schemes).</li>
  67 </ul>
