The general category is the category that is searched by default.
From a privacy standpoint it doesn't make sense to send all general
queries to specialized search engines that cannot deal with those
queries anyway.
Previously we didn't have a good place to put search engines that don't
fit into any of the tab categories. This commit automatically puts
search engines that don't belong to any tab category in an "other"
category, that is only displayed in the user preferences (and not above
search results).
Commit c7f27404 moves the `python -m searx.webapp` process to the background. A
background job can't open a simple python-debugger (pdb) console.
This patch moves all processes to the background except the searx.webapp.
Insert a break point somewhere in the webapp application::
import pdb
pdb.set_trace()
And start a debug session by::
make run
and test you break point.
To test that the entire 'make run' stops in the case of an error in the
themes.live [1] background process try:
make LIVE_THEME=typo-theme-name run

Stuff in folder searxng_extra/ is not suitable for normal users and should only
be used by developers.
The script searxng_extra/standalone_searx.py must not give the impression that
it improves privacy. [1]

Previously all categories were displayed as search engine tabs.
This commit changes that so that only the categories listed under
categories_as_tabs in settings.yml are displayed.
This lets us introduce more categories without cluttering up the UI.
Categories not displayed as tabs can still be searched with !bangs.
Previously the documentation grouped the engines by their first
category so e.g. YouTube and Invidious were only shown in the
in the videos section but not in the music section.
This commit fixes this by iterating over searx.engines.categories,
which also has the added benefit that the sections are now in the
same order as the tabs in the user interface.
File searx/languages.py, created by update_languages.py has to pass quality
