Can one of the admins verify this patch?

@mr-c:
I need some clarification about what you mean by "getting help through github"

@safay Creating an issue: https://github.com/ged-lab/khmer/issues/new

@mr-c:
Ah okay, literally reporting an issue. Thanks for the clarification!

• Is it mergable?
• Did it pass the tests?
• If it introduces new functionality in scripts/ is it tested?
  Check for code coverage.
• Is it well formatted? Look at make pep8, make diff_pylint_report,
  make cppcheck, and make doc output. Use make format and manual
  fixing as needed.
• Did it change the command-line interface? Only additions are allowed
  without a major version increment. Changing file formats also requires a
  major version number increment.
• Is it documented in the ChangeLog?
• Was a spellchecker run on the source code and documentation after
  changes were made?

@mr-c: How's it look? Ready to merge?

re-wrote google search box from scratch; this is my code

@mr-c: when you have some time please have a look again; I think this is ready
