Version 2.19 304.4 KiB Works with Firefox 34.0 - 56.*, SeaMonkey 2.0 - 2.49.*, Thunderbird 34.0 - 52.*

  • [Bug 26309] Added Spanish keyboard layout
  • Added Spanish Locale - thanks to strel at Babelzilla.org
  • Added support for Firefox Pale Moon:

    Mozilla is going to eventually terminate XUL based addons, so it is important that
    our functionality stays supported on this Firefox fork. Here is a Mozilla blog post explaining their plans.

    There are also some changes planned around a new programming model called Electrolysis (e10s) which may break functionality of addons that try to insert content into any browser tab. It may become the standard in a near future release of Firefox and would also affect Zombiekeys.

    Please consider donating to help developing e10s compatibility for the future of Firefox.</p>
