download

There are many download related extensions. And I use several of them.
The one I use most is download statusbar. It prevent the official download manager from showing and jsut use one line above the statusbar to show the download status. Basicly, that’s all I need: How many time is left before the download is finished. […]

Let Emacs handle mailto:

Well Firefox is a web browser only and it doesn’t come with a mail client, so it will call the system default mailer to handle “mailto:” links.
It is hard to say how to define the system default mailer. It’s different according to your OS: On windows they use registry, in the Unix world it depends […]

save memory

There are lots of complains on the net about “memory leak” for Firefox 1.5+, and all solutions now point at setting browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers in about:config.

It can also disable […]

mozilla is amazing

If I have one running on notebook, and I invoke another on the server, it will show in the notebook with the same process if I set DISPLAY! I mean, the same process! Not another process on server and just display on notebook! Is this something related to my cross NFS mount home?
