It shows the title, URL and abstract for each result, which can +be directly opened in a browser from the terminal. Results are fetched in +pages (with page navigation). Supports sequential searches in a single googler +instance. + +googler was initially written to cater to headless servers without X. You can +integrate it with a text-based browser. However, it has grown into a very +handy and flexible utility that delivers much more. For example, fetch any +number of results or start anywhere, limit search by any duration, define +aliases to google search any number of websites, switch domains easily... all +of this in a very clean interface without ads or stray URLs. The shell +completion scripts make sure you don't need to remember any options. + +googler isn't affiliated to Google in any way. |
