I'm trying to figure out how I can use a + sign when using a keyword search.

Let's say I have google setup as a keyword search to google.com

google 2+2 -> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&biw=&bih=&q=2+2 (so 2 2)

Ok, I'll encode the +. google 2%2b2 -> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&biw=&bih=&q=2%252b2

So I'm stumped... How do I get the + to work in the keyword search?

Excellent... %S fixes it. With %S (instead of %s), the %2b doesn't get double encoded, like it does with %s.
