Go to Url

By Jamiie on Jun 20, 2008

I couldn't find a snippet to open your browser with the url

Usage: /go -c myspace; opens your browser with http://www.myspace.com
Switches: -o opens a .org site, -n opens a .net site, -c oepns a .com site, -co opens a .co.uk site.

alias go {
var %x $replace($1,-o,.org,-n,.net,-c,.com,-co,.co.uk)
run http://www. $+ $2- $+ %x
}

Yea, I would use $replace as vaseline said.

you can also use url -a instead of run

Why not do:

alias go {
var %x $replace($1,-o,.org,-n,.net,-c,.com,-co,.co.uk)
run http://www. $+ $2- $+ %x
}

However, you would have to specify -c for something for .com this would allow you to open some more.
Prompted with: /go -c hawkee
