O.P. How do you find the URL of a search Engine? (stuffplug related)
on the new version you can have it search a custom search engine.  how do you go about finding the URL one? like Google or Yahoo or MSN

Just search for something on a search engine,
copy the new URL, and replace your search query with $QUERY$
for example:
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=stupidqueryhere&...tab-web-t&toggle=1
becomes
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=$QUERY$&sm=Yahoo...tab-web-t&toggle=1
and you can mostly leave out all the other stuff too:
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=$QUERY$
