+ | ====== Firefox ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is a little collection of helpful plugins for the famous browser Firefox. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== It's All Text! ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | This plugin allows you to edit web forms using your favourite text editor. In | ||
+ | fact, this text has been written using vim running in an X terminal. | ||
+ | |||
+ | After the installation, | ||
+ | using a graphical one). Rather complex tasks need to be done within a shell | ||
+ | script, this is the one I use: | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | #!/bin/bash | ||
+ | / | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== MPlayerPlug-in ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The mplayerplug-in allows for having an embedded mplayer in firefox, acting as | ||
+ | an all-purpose web media player. The only problem is to install it in Gentoo | ||
+ | along with a binary firefox install, and not having to compile firefox from | ||
+ | source. But help can be found on the | ||
+ | [[http:// | ||
+ | get a tarball of gecko-sdk and use the contained headers. (Yes, no compiling | ||
+ | necessary as firefox-bin provides the libraries already.) | ||
+ | |||
+ | Here comes the quick and dirty guide: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * fetch and unpack mplayerplug-in and gecko-sdk into a temporary directory: | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | % mkdir / | ||
+ | % wget ' | ||
+ | % wget http:// | ||
+ | % tar xzf mplayerplug-in-3.50.tar.gz | ||
+ | % tar xzf gecko-sdk-i686-pc-linux-gnu-1.7.tar.gz | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | * compile and install mplayerplug-in: | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | % cd mplayerplug-in | ||
+ | % ./configure --enable-gtk2 \ | ||
+ | --with-gecko-sdk=/ | ||
+ | --prefix=/ | ||
+ | % make && make install | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | * restart firefox and enjoy :) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Show Full URLs in Address Bar ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Surprisingly simple, just set '' | ||
