What's nice about it is that it doubles as an application launcher using just the keyboard. In addition, you could set up more search actions in the Whisker properties. One example could be to search the forums using the following command:
I set that Search Action to !ll (lowercase L's for Linux Lite). So now when I press Super key the menu pops up and I begin typing !ll and then my search query. Firefox pops up (or a new tab if already open) and searches only the LL forums using DDG. This makes finding what I'm looking for a breeze.
Code:
firefox -new-tab https://duckduckgo.com/?q="site:https://linuxliteos.com/forums %u"
