I have added a couple of search engines to Firefox in the past using some custom XML. I now want to use these search engines on another PC but no longer have the source.

Is there any way to transfer the search engine details to a new PC?

I have a "Organize Search Engines" plugin installed that shows me the various settings in a dialog but it's not very convenient for export!

You can find the files of custom search engines in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox Profile Folder
