Hi Igor,

it seems that Opera will not let you request a URL without a '.' for the 
hostname. Therefore I tried some other aliases. What workes with Opera 
(version 7.54) is this:

 http://g.g/l = http://www.google.ru/linux

Out of curiosity: why do you want to use an alias and not bookmark the 
google page? Then you need not type the URL but just select the 
appropriate bookmark.

Nils
