Using gimmeasearx as a custom Firefox search engine [OLD]

Using this Firefox extension, it is possible to use gimmeasearx as a custom Firefox search engine:

1. Install the extension
2. Run gimmeasearx locally
3. Go to the installed extension settings by clicking on its icon in the addons toolbar
4. Set 'Name' to 'SearX' (or any name you wish, it doesn't matter)
5. Set 'Search URL' to point to gimmeasearx plus '/search?q=%s' (e.g. 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/search?q=%s') You can also add search parameters such as '&grade-v=on' or '&tor=on' to filter instances
6. Click 'Add custom search engine' and follow the last steps
7. Done!

Note: you should only use gimmeasearx instances which you fully trust, as they could potentially read your search queries with this method.
