A co-worker (Jared Rhine) pointed me to Yubnub.org a while back.  I
have grown addicted to it as a Internet command-line to jump straight
to what I want.  E.g. I use a command like "thes addicted" to quickly
find thesaurus matches: absorbed, accustomed, attached... :)   


There was one IETF-related yubnub command already and I added two more
very simple ones.


To jump to an RFC: <bold>rfc</bold> xxxx

	e.g. 'rfc 2822'  (don't forget space)


Internet-Draft Database Search: (shows list with filename substring
match): <bold>ids</bold> keyword

	e.g. 'ids dusseault' to find draft-dusseault-caldav-08, but not
draft-ietf-webdav-rfc2518bis because 'dusseault' isn't in the title of
that one

 

To jump to a WG charter: <bold>wg </bold>wgname

	e.g. 'wg imapext'


Not only do I get to avoid the thesaurus.com web form to find
thesaurus matches, I also avoid the Yubnub Web form because I've set
up Firefox so that I can type a Yubnub command line right into the
address bar. Other possibilities include using the search engine field
or a console app
<<http://www.yubnub.org/documentation/describe_installation>.


Fun, fun.  Hope it's useful to you too.  Let me know if you create
other IETF-related command lines.  I'll blog about it or something so
as not to spam people again.
