MozGest) is a XPI for Mozilla allowing Mouse Gestures to be available. It works great with Mozilla 0.9.4 and nightly builds. It currently has Gestures for: *New Tab Window (Moz Tabs!!) *Forward in History *Backward in History *Reload *New Document *Up a directory in the URL *View Source *View Cookies for Current Domain *View Meta Data for Domain and *Access Homepage."

  1. (Flamebait, -1!!!!) What about the keyboard? by Malc · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Who give's a flying f**k about mouse gestures? Mice are a good way to get tendinitus. I just want good keyboard support. I'm sorry to say, but IE actually does a good job in this department. (I guess X people don't get it, and as can be seen by using Windows and how easy it is to ignore the mouse with that MSFT offering).

    Funny. I use Mozilla all day and every day and it rarely crashes. Better yet is NS 6.1 which has to be one of the most stable pieces of software I've ever used.
