This is a simple but useful script that allows you quickly open up an AvatarWiki search from the TinTin++ client. (Requires FireFox for now[1])
Code
Put the following into a file in your tintin++ folder and use #read <filename> while in tintin to load them up. Though you probably want this to autoload with your character.
#alias wiki {#system {firefox "http://avatar.melanarchy.info/index.php/Special:Search?search=%0&go=Go"}}
Usage
- Just type: wiki <search string>
- It'll go directly to whatever page you search for, or if it can't find a direct match, it'll show you similar results. Just like searching from here!

OS X
OS X users can use a more general alias to open the wiki link in their default browser:
#alias wiki {#system {open "http://avatar.melanarchy.info/index.php/Special:Search?search=%0&go=Go"}}
