The search history is already there in FoxTrot Pro (menu Bookmarks / Bookmarks Window). History is kept during 90 days.

You can change how long to keep it by opening in TextEdit the file "com.ctmdev.FoxTrotPro.prefs" (not the .plist one) from your ~/Library/Preferences folder, then change the value in the line:
90
Note that you should quit FoxTrot Pro before modifying this file, or your changes will be overwritten.
