Extension List Dumper 2

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

@gazzawazza "However, I've just discovered a couple of problems (using public release FF 47.0):

1) it lists extensions that are not user installed and are actually firefox default installs:

- firefox hello
- multi-process staged rollout
- pocket"

For me, that is certainly not a problem. It reveals extensions whose presence would otherwise be unknown to the user (although they are also visible in 'Help'-'Troubleshooting Information'.)

In this case, firefox hello and pocket are considered, by some, to be undesirable. Once detected, they can be deactivated by "Classic Theme Restorer" extension.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.1). 

Quicktext

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

@clonick

You would find it extremely useful to look at the website again, more carefully, particularly in the

"Quicktext - Support and Help" forum.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9.11.7). 

Shift-Delete Controller

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

You could try ConfirmBeforeDelete by klades (aka Kaosmos). Look for it or klades on Mozillazine forums for more details.

Live HTTP Headers

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

For me, in FF3.0.11, Win XP SP2, LHTTPH version 0.15 shows a string of strange characters after each header string. Presumably same sort of problem as was fixed for FF3.5 still/now exists in FF3.0.11.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.15). 

keywordManager

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

keywordManager shows a complete list of all your bookmarks which have 'keywords' defined for them. Thus, without any fuss at all, it provides a facility which should certainly already be built into the FF native Bookmarks Organiser.

Three enhancements I would like to see are;

1) Right-click 'Organize Bookmarks' should focus that (keyworded) bookmark in the 'Organise Bookmarks' window.

2) Added 'Go to Parent Folder' in the Right-click (context) menu to open 'Bookmarks' window/sidebar focussed on that (keyworded) bookmark.

(In similar manner as, for example, 'Go Parent Folder' extension -
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7377 )

3) ..and, of course, an option to display the keyword list in the sidebar..

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.7.2).

No New Window on Double Click

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

I have been using this extension for so long I cannot remember when first. Certainly it has served without problems and done what it says throughout the life of TB 1.5.n and now on TB2.0.0.4 (All on Win XP Pro SP2, normally fully patched)

For everyday idiots like me, whose CNS stubbornly demands a double-click when only a single is required, it turns a potential constant self irritation into a minor slip.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.2.3).
