Take a list of words and turn it into a single Google query matching any
of them:
me% cat keywords
corsairs
buccaneers
privateers
Desired query:
https://www.google.com/search?q=corsairs+OR+buccaneers+OR+privateers
Script:
me% cat search
#!/bin/sh
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin
set -o nounset
umask 022
query=$(tr "[:space:]" "+" < keywords |
sed -e 's/ /+OR+/g' -e 's/+$//' -e 's/+/+OR+/g')
curl -s -L -o pirate.htm "https://www.google.com/search?q=${query}";
ls -l pirate.htm
exit 0
