[NTLK] Google Palm Search

Someone posted Google's new Google Palm Search. Nice, except for two
bad things. (1) you can't force it to show more than 5 entries per
screen, (2) it has little icons rather than text for "cache" and
"similar".

Anyway, I've written a Sherlock/Hemlock .src file. Type the following
into your Notepad, then choose "Add to Hemlock Engines". Or save as a
.src file and stick in the appropriate Sherlock location [everything
between but not including the dashed lines]

<search

        method=GET />
<input name="q" user />
<input name="hl" value="en" />
<interpret

        resultListEnd="<center>"
        resultItemStart="<p>" />
</search>

I'm not positive what the result will be for Hemlock yet -- I'm missing
an ethernet cable and can't test it. :-( Perhaps a kind soul could
report on how well it works. BTW, there are lots of other switches you
can turn on (change the language from English, search only in a specific
domain, etc.)
