Place any and all common results, code, notes here.

Zenit-Wiki Search by Ezadkiel Marbella: 

CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
 name: "zenit/wiki specific search:",
 takes: {"search zenit/wiki term": noun_arb_text},
 preview: function( pblock, wikiquery ) {
   pblock.innerHTML = "Will Search For: " + wikiquery.text;
 },
 execute: function( wikiquery ) {
  var url = "http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Special:Search?search={QUERY}&go=Go"
  var query = wikiquery.text;
  var urlString = url.replace("{QUERY}", query);
  Utils.openUrlInBrowser(urlString);
 }
})

This is my submission. I am assuming we are encouraged to reuse code wherever possible. When using the search it is recommended that you separate the terms by + signs as that is what the goggle interface inserts between search terms. I found that it works when spaces are used as well though.

 execute: function() {
   var currentPath = CmdUtils.getDocumentInsecure().location.href;

   var wikiHome = currentPath.substring(0, currentPath.lastIndexOf("/"));

   /* Gets the title of the document in wiki */
   var wikiTitle = currentPath.substring(currentPath.lastIndexOf("/") + 1);

   /* Makes the printable version url */
   var printURL = wikiHome + "?title=" + wikiTitle + "&printable=yes";

   Utils.openUrlInBrowser( printURL );
 }
})

Searches the XKCD archives for whatever term you enter. Not complex, but can be enjoyable.

      if ( params != null )
      {        
        var url = "http://maps.google.com/?";
          // change the object attributes into url parameters
        url += jQuery.param( params );
          // open in a new window
        Utils.openUrlInBrowser( url );
      }
      else
      { 
          // error message for no address supplied       
        displayMessage( "An address has not been inputed. Example is: New York; " );        
      }
    }, // execute

      if ( text.indexOf( ";" ) == - 1 )
      {
        return [];
      }
        // split the addresses based on a semi colon
      var addrs = text.split(";");        
      var directions = null;  
      var params = {};    
        // set the first address to be the from address      
      directions = "from: " + addrs[ 0 ];
      params.saddr = addrs[ 0 ]; 
        // loop through the rest of the addresses and add them
        // to the directions or parameters
      for ( var idx = 1; idx < addrs.length - 1; idx++ )
      {        
        directions += " to: " + addrs[ idx ];
        if ( idx == 1 )
        {
          params.daddr = addrs[ idx ];
        }
        else
        {
          params.daddr += "+to:" + addrs[ idx ];
        }
      }
        // return both the directions and parameters
      return [directions,params];
    }, // _getAddresses
      // load a preview map
    preview: function ( pblock, directObj )
    { 
           
      var text = directObj.text;
               
      var directions = this._getAddresses( text )[0];
       // check if a null address was returned
      if ( directions != null )
      {
        pblock.innerHTML = directions;
      }
      else
      {      
        pblock.innerHTML =  "Enter an address followed by a semi-colon for each address to ";
        pblock.innerHTML += "find directions to.<br />";
        pblock.innerHTML += "Example.  New York; Chicago; Miami;";
        pblock.innerHTML += "<br /><br />Each Address must end with a semi-colon.";
      }
            
    } // preview
  }
)

I'll probably continue to work on it. Add some dynamic CSS to the preview div.

});



So I reused Ezadkiel Marbella's code and made code for searching cnet.com. this thing is so much fun I am thinking about making something else too.
- Zaid Ghansar 11th September 2008 

CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
 name: "cnet",
 author: { name: "Zaid Ghansar" },
 description: "Searches cnet.com.",
 help: "searches for a highlighted term or typed term at cnet.com",
 takes: {"search terms": noun_arb_text},
 preview: function( pblock, searchquery ) {
   pblock.innerHTML = "<img src='http://i.afterdawn.com/v3/news/cnet_logo.gif' /> Will Search For: " + searchquery.text;
 },
 execute: function( cnetquery ) {
  var url = "http://www.cnet.com/1770-5_1-0.html?query={QUERY}&tag=srch"
  var query = cnetquery.text;
  query = query.replace("+", " ");
  var urlString = url.replace("{QUERY}", query);
  Utils.openUrlInBrowser(urlString);
 }
})

and another for getting NASDAQ stock quotes: 

CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
 name: "nasdaq",
 author: { name: "Zaid Ghansar" },
 description: "Shows current NASDAQ stock value.",
 help: "searches for a stocks current vallue at NASDAQ using google",
 takes: {"search stock": noun_arb_text},
 preview: function( pblock, searchquery ) {
   pblock.innerHTML = "<img src='http://www.buylow-sellhigh.com/images/NASDAQ_logo.gif' /> Will Search For: " + searchquery.text;
 },
 execute: function( query ) {
  var url = "http://finance.google.com/finance?client=ob&q=NASDAQ:" + query.text;
  Utils.openUrlInBrowser(url);
 }
})
