        Hello,

        I was wondering if searx.info could be added to the list of search engines in the Morph browser.

        Thank you.

            I would like to add ask.moe from my side. My idea was actually to send a patch/pull request to morph code, I suppose it would not be really difficult, but I still have to dive into the code and I do not have much time... Actually, if I find the time I could add your search engine as well 🙃

              @thrill_seeker Quick search on github.com/ubports found a folder for morph search engines implementation. The code in SearchEngines.qml scans through the dir for *.xml and uses them. So to add new search engine, add a new XML to the dir. You can look on the other to figure out how to write a new one. Good luck.

                @jezek wow! thank you very much, you found it in a moment. Do yo know (or anyone) if it is possible to send patches instead of pull requests? (I do not have a Github account, and if possible I would like to avoid creating one). Thanks!

                  @thrill_seeker No, I'm not aware of an possibility to contribute without github login. Maybe someone knows. At worst case paste here (if not long direct to comment or via some link to some storage). I'm sure someone will take care of it. 😉

                    I think it should be emphasized that this should be added into the GUI for sure. There has to be a better way to do this.
                    Thanks for bringing this up so I didn't have to, @Bramble.

                      The way Firefox does it should be applied to Morph too :

                      Long Tap the Search Engine Input Box and you can add ANY Search Engine to your browser! 🙂

                      But please fix the Tab Switching first, because it really lowers "the user friendlyness" of the browser!
                      Just copy that from Firefox too! 😉 😄
