Thanks Brent! It installed without any problem and showed up on the desktop. Enhancement requests:Anyway - I like the widget very much. It looks really good and works well :-) Thanks again!
- The size of the buttons works well. Don't make it larger.
- In the "Type A Search Query" dialogue, could you add a keyevent for ENTER to immediately start the search?
- In the same dialogue, let the user touch the searchengine logo to change the search engine used in another way?
- The button is very dark, what about a thin semi-transparent frame around it like other widgets have?
- The right button is incomprehensible. What does it represent? Using a pulldown/choose button as seen in other apps.
- In "Select A Site To Search", mark the current searchengine when opening the dialogue - otherwise cancelling it will change the search to Google.
- Compared to Nokias search widget in OS2008: Is there some kind of config file available to modify? How can we add our own searches? Could GConf help?

- I plan on adding many more searches to the applet in future versions -- but would also like to implement a way for users to add their own.
