Mouse Gestures in Mozilla

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."

    I just read this headline and all I could think of was a prostitute mouse hawking an AOL CD with Netscape on it. *shudders* I blame the poor quality of coffee in this facility.

    atleast for me, as I keep wiggling the mouse, marking random text and pressing buttons while I read a page. Dunno why, compulsive disorder probably. ;)

    Atleast I learned pretty quick not to mark text text and press middle mousebutton in mozilla. :)

    I would give my left foot for a vim-like mode in mozilla.

    Okay. You send me your left foot and I'll make Mozilla support a vim-like mode. Sounds like a fair deal, though I am more used to accepting souls in return.

    But a foot is a good start.
