Quick Website Navigating Tutorial

I have noticed that whenever people go to say the Wurm Wiki, they usually either type out the whole address or go onto the Wurm home page and click the wiki link which is boring and gives you RSI.

Well heres a shortcut that will make life easier for you. (Windows only)

Step 1.

Go into: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\

Open the hosts file in notepad.

Step 2.

Insert this into a new line at the bottom of the file:

>http://www.wurmonline.com/wiki       wiki

Or, for Firefox, make a new bookmark with the wiki URL as the location, and wiki as the keyword.

Type the keyword, wiki, into the address bar and you're flying.

Also: If you create a shortcut to the wurmclient or something similair then you can assign a CTRL+ALT+Something shortcut for it by going into the options.

I use CTRL+ALT+W to start up Wurm.

This doesn't work, hosts file is used for adding/changing dns entries locally, not providing aliases for URLs.

And technically it isn't windows only, linux has the same file - /etc/hosts.
