Here's a shell helper I wrote a while ago, mainly to do the following: 1. right-click URL in browser -> copy 2. start cwm(1) application, i.e. `command watch watch' in cwmrc(5) 3. have mpv(1) started streaming the URL, possibly with youtube-dl(1)
I've put it into shape and uploaded the script somewhere, wrote a
proper manual as well so DESCR merely serves as teaser.

watch YouTube search results.

I know this could conflict with a future port of the GNU watch(1) tool,
but it has yet to arrive and other names for this tool are already used,
e.g. view(1) from editors/vim and stream(1) from graphics/ImageMagick.
Feedback? OK?
