You can do the search using one of these:
— tilde.team/~smokey/cgi-bin/search-engine-inputs.gmi
Lagrange also directly supports custom "bang" shortcuts that can be used for making web searches through a HTTP proxy, among other things.

I have a feature request. Currently when writing a reply on BBS I have to close the form if I need to check with another tab. Wouldn't it be better to display the form next to the link that returned 1X, just like Lagrange does with images e.g.? Anything would work as long as it's not modal.
Not a big deal, just something that maybe can be improved.

@Gentooshnik I've considered doing inline input prompts. However, I would rather avoid needing to change the page layout on the fly while the user is typing their message. And if you enter many lines of text, we would probably end up with nested scrolling regions, which is always a UX nuisance.
I recommend either Shift-clicking the Comment link to open the input prompt on the side in split view, or using the context menu to open the prompt in a new window.
Note that by default split views are linked so clicking something on the left side will open it on the right, but you can change this in Preferences (split view pinning).
Of course, if you're on the phone, things are more complicated since you have neither split views or multiple windows... Maybe I can think of some way to make it easier to switch tabs while the prompt is open.
I think the Titan upload prompt should be a full page anyway (maybe internally you can use status code 0 or 98 or 100 or something). Even on desktop, particularly when I'm editing my gemlog, I'd like to be able to switch tabs while I'm in an editor to copy-paste a quote from a different page. Currently I'm doing that with split-view, but if I don't remember to do it before, then, well, either I'm publishing it half finished or I lose my progress.
On mobile, I might still have the full page text box be modal, and have the tab/address bar only appear on the "root" page of the Titan upload prompt.

@halscode Note that you can close and reopen both the Titan upload dialog and the regular input prompts without losing your half-finished writing. The contents are saved and restored automatically.
The exception is Edit with Titan where the contents get replaced with the edited page/resource contents.
This patch tidies up a few details in the v1.18.0 release: Fixed a few issues with the TUI build, for example on Arch Linux. Curses will only be linked statically if the `ENABLE_STATIC` option is enabled. (YMMV if static linking actually works on your particular system.) Fixed potentially garbled screen in the TUI build. This was the previously mentioned problem with code optimizations resulting in invalid...
