About this extension
Firefox WebExtension for flexible full text browsing history search. **Press `e`, then `space`, in the omnibox to start searching your previously visited websites**
Every time you visit a website in Firefox, Eagle indexes all the text on the page so that the site can be easily found later. For example, if you type `e <space> browser fast for food`, Eagle will show the websites you visited containing the text "browser fast for food"!
