In the last version of the script, only the last keyword is "stored".
From my point of view it is enough in most cases, I think that store
all the searched keywords adds unnecessary complexity.

I've been talking with pancake and neither him nor me will use this

Anyway, these features could be useful for other people, so it's almost
sure that surf2.sh will be welcome :)
