[Surfraw-devel] How to use surfraw with curl

Thu Aug 11 00:47:36 UTC 2016

Hello David,

I did some tests, and it looks like the args aren't being passed. I
created a curl wrapper

    printf '#!/bin/sh\n\ncurl -vL "$@"' | tee $HOME/bin/vcurl
    chmod +x $_
    sr -browser vcurl -s duckduckgo trump

and I was able to get the actual HTML.

Cheers,
Kyle
