1 FireMan
2 The local firefox manual page viewer.
5 0. Requirements
7 Firefox 2.0 and higher required (1.5 and lower untested).
9 A "zip" program is required.
11 Be sure to have a 'sed' (man 1 sed) installed with infile (-i) support
12 (ex. GNU sed).
14 On OpenBSD install the "gsed" package.
17 1. Building
19 Type "make" to build a XPI extension package if you meet the
20 requirements.
23 2. Using
25 Start Firefox and choose "File" -> "Open File..." and choose the XPI
26 file from this directory.
29 3. Developing
31 To have a faster development, create a file, named like the application
32 id with the path to the build directory in it. Example:
34   pwd > \
35   ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profileid>/extensions/fireman\@new-thoughts.org
37 Afterwards, Firefox will load the current state on start.
