Installing firefox / extension from command line on windows ?Hi ,
I need to install firefox and a extension for it remotely on 40

Command-line Extension InstallerSomething along the lines of
install-mozilla-extension (--firefox|--thunderbird|...) \
ext1 ext2 ...
Where extN is either a file or a URL, in either case something .xpi.
Something like this would make remote/bulk installing/upgrading/extending
of mozilla+family installations much easier.
Cheers,
Carlo

(re)install an extension from command lineHi all.
I'm developing a firefox extension non bootstrap, and it would be very
helpful to me to automatize its installation for rapid development.
Specially I would like to be able to restart firefox from command line
and reinstall my extension. I have this bash / bat script that builds
the xpi file for the extension.
Now, I have to drop the xpi file to firefrox using the mouse and answer
2 dialogs for restarting firefox an be able to test my extension
changes. This is not practical to me and I would like to reduce this
work and be able to reinstall my extension using ...

How to pass command line arguments to an extension using a command line on MacOS?I am developing an extension that processes some command line options.
I want to invoke the Firefox from a command line like this:

I am running into a problem on Mac OS. When I run such command when
there is no FireFox running it works fine. However if I run the
command again I get an error saying that there is already an instance
of Firefox running and only one instance can run at a time
(paraphrasing here). I have tried to use the -remote option but no
luck.

determining which plugins and extensions are installed from the command lineHello,
I am working on automated bug triage for Firefox and Thunderbird on
Ubuntu(Linux). I am wondering if it is possible to determine which
plugins and extensions are installed via the command line.
Currently, we ask the bug reporter to look in about:plugins to see
which plugins they have installed. I would like to skip this step so
that the information is included in the orginal issue report.
Thanks

command-line install onlyHi,
has anyone managed to create a standalone command-line build
system?
I tried following
http://delphi.wikia.com/wiki/Setting_up_a_Delphi_Build_Machine
but with little success.
(This is for dcc32.exe building.)
I only managed to get up to copying the Bin\ and Lib\
folders.
When I run "dcc32 -NS<a bunch of unit scopes> project.dpr",
I get:
Main.pas(5) Fatal: F1026 File not found:
'c:\Users\testbuild\build\Windows.dcu'
I have System mentioned in the -NS argument. I'm just not sure
what others. I copied the NS line from my .dpr file.

Installing Firefox ExtensionsWhen I attempt to install extentions to my Firefox
1.5.0.1 on my Mac OS 10.4.5, I get the following pop
up message:
"Software installation is currently disabled. Click
Edit Options...to enable it and try again."
Clicking Edit Options brings me to the Content tab
of Firefox Preferences.
The only thing I can see as possibly relevant is
"Warn me when web sites try to install extensions or
themes."
I've unclicked that, and every other option in
Preferences that seems remotely relevant, and I
continue to get the "Software installation is

Firefox command lineHi,
I want to open Firefox by command line sending an url as argument
(first part) and after I want to know if the url was completely loaded
(second part).
The first part is okay, but the second is a little dark.

Is there some reference or can anyone help me?
Thanks,
