[tw] Re: Installing an xpi addition...

2009-01-12 Thread Morris Gray

From my post on the TiddlySnips Group

I have developed the habit of saving the xpi files in a folder like
FFAddons then for installation on Firefox clicking FileOpen
File*.xpi

Give that a try maybe coming from the local disk might help.

 XPI is Mozilla's extension format* - so technically, it has little to do
 with TiddlyWiki plugins.

 The easiest way to install an XPI in Firefox is probably to open the
 Add-ons dialog from the Tools menu and drag the XPI file in there.

  I believe it is a question of general concern so I intend to add
  good answers to tiddlywiki.org

 Great!

I followed FNDs instructions and they were spot on. My sincere thanks.
And also to Morris of course, for your more general approach.
I have added both to tiddlywiki.org accordingly [1] i.e also the more
general one. If it is not considered suitable there, then anyone is of
course free to cut it out. I reasoned it is relevant for the sake of
installing TiddlySnip.

Thank you!
