  How to quickly search the Ruby 1.9.3 documentation in Google Chrome

  1. Go to Preferences
  2. Click the “Basics” tab
  3. Click “Manage Search Engines”
  4. Scroll down to the row with “Add a new search engine” (hint: it’s at the bottom)
  5. In the first box, type “Ruby-doc 1.9.3”
  6. In the second box, type “rb” (this is your keyword)
  7. In the third box in that row, paste this in:
     http://www.google.com/search?q=site:ruby-doc.org/core/+%22Ruby+1.9.3%22+%s&btnI=Im+Feeling+Lucky
  8. Test it out

  Edit: Just found something cooler: an extension that makes this search option and adds a “Google Instant” type thing to it.
