You can also use shellscripting and do something like this:
#!/bin/sh
read input
token=$(printf "%s" "$input" | cut -b 1-2)
stuff=$(printf "%s" "$input" | cut -b 3-)
url="$input"
engine=""
if [ "$token" = "g " ]; then
engine="https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=%s";
elif [ "$token" = "y " ]; then
engine="http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%s&aq=f";
elif [ "$token" = "w " ]; then
engine="http://wikipedia.org/wiki/%s";
fi
if [ ! "$engine" = "" ]; then
url=$(printf "$engine" "$stuff")
fi
printf "Url is: |%s|\n" "$url"
Kind regards (and happy new year),
