In Firefox you can right click on a search field and add a keyword bookmark. Once saved, you can type 'kw search query', where kw is your defined key word, in the address bar to directly search the relevant site

I'm aware of that. The problem is that you have to manually add all the keywords yourself. AFAIK, there isn't an easy way to import a large list of curated keywords like the DDG bang list.

They are bookmarks you can export/import from Firefox, so someone could easily make a Firefox bookmark file for a large set of them.

Love this feature. I've got basically all the bang keywords but instead of say `!g query` it just becomes `g <query>`.
