XOWA has pre-defined shortcuts to different wikis. These allow quick access to an article in another wiki without entering in the full url.
< / p >
< p >
For example, to open the English Wikipedia article on "Earth", you would ordinarily enter:
< / p >
< pre >
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth
< / pre >
< p >
Instead, using shortcuts, you can enter:
< / p >
< pre >
w:Earth
< / pre >
< p >
Note that shortcuts are case-sensitive. "w:Earth" will work, but "W:Earth" will not.
< / p >
< p >
The following table lists the shortcut for a given wiki type:

< / h2 >
< p >
Wikis in a non-English language can be opened by prefixing the language code to the shortcut.
< / p >
< p >
For example, to go to < code > fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terre< / code > , you would enter the following:
< / p >
< pre >
fr.w:Terre
< / pre >
< p >
Note that < code > fr< / code > is the language code for "French" and < code > w< / code > is the XOWA type code for "Wikipedia" as defined above.
< / p >
< h2 >
< span class = "mw-headline" id = "Search_shortcut" > Search shortcut< / span >
< / h2 >
< p >
In addition, there is a special shortcut designed for search.
< / p >
< pre >
?:Earth
< / pre >
< p >
This is equivalent to:
< / p >
< pre >
Special:Search/Earth?fulltext=yes
< / pre >
< p >

XOWA also allows customization of shortcuts by modifying the custom gfs file. See: < a href = "http://xowa.org/home/wiki/Special:XowaCfg%3Fgrp%3Dxowa.app.startup.html" id = "xolnki_2" title = "Special:XowaCfg?grp=xowa.app.startup" class = "xowa-visited" > Options: App - Startup< / a >

Shortcuts should be chosen wisely. In particular, using "http", "https" and "file" as a shortcut is heavily discouraged. Similarly, "Category", "Talk", "Help", "Template", "Wikipedia" and other wiki namespaces should be avoided.
< / p >
< p >
< b > NOTE< / b > : The following script may change in future versions. If your customized shortcut stops working in a future version, please check this page again.
