InternetSearch
--------------

As the name suggests, this is a simple handler that invokes a
search engine in an internet browser, using the content of the 
current AgendaItem as the search term.

See/edit local-properties/internet-search.props for details of 
the set-up.


Compiling the Handler
---------------------

Use the compile-InternetSearch scripts in this directory.


Using the Handler
-----------------

To use a handler in your panel, use the "additional-handlers" parameter with
the full package name of the handler. For example, add the following line to 
your .props file:

additional-handlers=ix.search.InternetSearch

You can add multiple handlers by specifying a comma-separated list of handler
names (with no spaces between them).

In addition, the location of the compiled java code needs to be added to the
classpath - this is done by modifying the panel start script (see examples).
