– Settings Window
Quotes by default? (ALT+Q)
toggles the default setting of Quotes?
on the Search Window.
Pluses by default?
(ALT+P) toggles the default setting of Pluses? on the Search Window.
Keep genitive apostrophe?
(ALT+K) keeps the apostrophe in the search string in the combinations 's
+ space and s'
+ space
even if the apostrophe is one of the characters in
the Strip string (see below). It also changes curly
apostrophes into straight apostrophes in the same cases. Note
that
this option does not work with most multi-byte languages (Japanese,
Chinese, etc.).
Strip numbers by
default?
(ALT+I) deletes all occurrences of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 in
the search string. For example, if you
select this item and highlight "Windows 2000 and XP", the Search Window
will display "Windows and XP".
Load on Windows Startup?
(ALT+L) preloads IntelliWebSearch every time the computer is started up.
Default search n. (ALT+F): the
user may choose the default button on the Search Window, i.e. the
button which is selected simply by pressing Enter. Set to 0 to make the
PluriSearch button default.
Strip string (ALT+T)
is
a string of characters which are automatically removed from the search
string. For example if the Strip string is as shown in figure 4
and you highlight "Windows© (Me or XP)", the search string in
the
Search Window will be "Windows Me or XP".
Copy Key (ALT+O)
is
the shortcut key combination simulated by IntelliWebSearch to copy text
from your Windows applications. CTRL+C is now standard for English
language programs.
Shortcut Key (ALT+H)
is the key combination used to open the Search Window. CTRL+ALT+B is
default (B for browser).
PluriSearch
Shortcut Key (ALT+E) is the key
combination
used to bypass the Search
Window and send the search string to any number of preselected searches almost simultaneously. CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+B by default.
Return Shortcut Key
(ALT+R) is the key
combination used to copy any highlighted text in your browser or local dictionary and
return to the original application. CTRL+ALT+C by default (C for copy).
The text may then be pasted into your application using the
usual
paste shortcut key (usually CTRL+V).
Check for updates (ALT+D) is how often IntelliWebSearch automatically checks for
program updates and/or new interface languages. If set to Manual, choose Check for updates from the system tray menu (right click the IntelliWebSearch icon) when you wish to check for updates.
Interface language (ALT+I) is
the language used for the interface. If new languages are
available after a Check for updates, they will be added to the dropdown
list. To install a new language simply choose it while connected to the
Internet.
Advanced Options
Alternative
Copy Key
(ALT+N) is a second shortcut key combination simulated by
IntelliWebSearch to
copy text from your Windows applications. It is useful if
you want
to use IntelliWebSearch with other applications that do not use the
standard copy key combination to copy text (some legacy MS DOS
applications, for example, use CTRL+Insert). IntelliWebSearch simulates
this combination only if the first combination does not put anything
into the clipboard within the Clipboard timeout setting (see below).
Note that this combination
will be simulated even if the reason the first combination did not put
anything into the clipboard was that you forgot to highlight any text.
It is therefore a good idea to make sure that the alternative copy key
combination does not have undesirable effects in the other applications
you will be using IntelliWebSearch with. By default there is no
Alternative Copy Key.
Cmd before returning
(ALT+M):
the user may set an optional keystroke which is simulated immediately before leaving the
browser with CTRL+ALT+C. By default it is not set. Hint: this can be used to avoid tab clutter
in Firefox, Opera, and other tabbed browsers. Ctrl+F4 closes the
most recent tab in Opera and Firefox and Ctrl+Alt+W closes all tabs in
Opera. Alt+F4 can be used to close the browser entirely.
Browser (ALT+B):
the user may choose the browser IntelliWebSearch will use to open the
search engines/on-line dictionaries/on-line encyclopaedias. If it is left blank,
IntelliWebSearch will use your default Browser. To choose Internet
Explorer, simply type iexplore.exe.
Clipboard timeout (ALT+U)
may be set by the user (in tenths of a second). Setting a lower value
(even zero) will cause CTRL+ALT+B and CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+B to work faster if
an Alternative Copy Key (see above) has been set, otherwise it will
make no speed difference. Setting a lower value will also cause
CTRL+ALT+C to work faster if
no
text is selected for copying back, otherwise it makes
no difference to the speed of this function either. However a
low
value may cause
CTRL+ALT+B, CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+B and CTRL+ALT+C to malfunction if you have
a slow or particularly taxed system. If you want to speed up the
functions described here, try tweaking it until you find the
lowest
value which causes no errors.
Press Save and close
(ALT+S) to save changes. Press Close
without saving (ALT+C) to leave the Settings window
without saving any changes made.
Press F1 for
context-sensitive help.
