I agree the average user may not care about the javascript console and the webdeveloper console, but the others are very useful and save me a lot of time. Whenever I am at a pc without firefox my productivity drops (a bit). This makes ff much more useful to me than a patched internet explorer, which is the proposal i replied to.
It would probably be as easy to write a macro (in VBA) which dumps the selected range in a csv file itself, you would only need something to treat quotes and newlines properly. It would not be the fastest macro, especially with larger selections.
Cool. And what extension mimicks the javascript console, the web developer extension, the search-in-this-page-while-i-type, the Sage rss extension, the multi-engine-searchbox?

Not "just becoz it is not MS": ff really is a bless for web developers. Though k-meleon also is pretty nice, and faster, ff is extendable (Sage for example is a tiny extension to read RSS, compare this to having to install '.net' and a hog of a program), ff has great web developer tools, very nice searchengine bar, very nice page search, and it IS pretty nice what it does to html strict, xml, CSS.
The best way would be to choose whatever measure makes you most happy.
And keep things in perspective. For example, if you moved into town to be closer to work and save gasoline, but you hate to live in town and have to take more holidays in Hawaii.... well there goes your fuel saving.
Then, there are some tools that can help you to choose which step is the most efficient for you; i like the 'ecological footprint'. It calculates the imaginary footprint you have on the world, by all your energy use, food use, etc. Of course the method is a bit weird, comparing energy use with food, clothes etc and converting that to hectares (or acres). So just use it as a guide.
What amazed me was that eating vegetarian made a big difference. Since i don't mind eating less meat, that was an easy thing to do. Yes, I know, this may vary with other/.-ers, so save your finger energy.;) (if you don't know how to cook without meat pls collect some nice recipes, average-american-food-with-meat-left-out is horrible).
There is a popular biologist here who jokingly claims he can do whatever he likes to the environment because he did not take any children. He says, imagine how many diapers etc I saved...
And since i also DON'T like children... hehehe...
BTW I spoke to a Scottish transport expert and he told me not to worry about the worlds' oil use. He says oil will soon become so expensive that people will save on oil use anyway.
as long as you don't let cows fart for you as their methane farts are 30 times stronger greenhouse gas than carbondioxide. thank god we don't have to worry too much about methane in our own farts says http://www.heptune.com/farts.html
Your rigid calvinistic outlook surprises and scares me. A personal advice: try to respect and like other people. You may be surprised at what you get back.
Ach... responsibility... it's not healthy for a young single person to have a stupid payed job instead of following a dream, just because you-never-know-what could happen.
I have the deepest respect for people who are quicker than me in taking the steps to make their life more meaningful and fulfilling. I am pretty much a coward as the person above me: I waited with quitting my previous job, now 4 weeks ago, until I had enough money to survive for at least two years. Now i am going to travel around low-budget to find my dream.
And in response to the person caring for an MS patient: very good you are caring for that person. I can understand tha tin your situation you need to wait to switch jobs.
Because you can't absorb it all at once. Check how eyes try to catch as many of the fotons flying around as they can. For the same reason chlorophyl in plants has an 'antenna complex'.
Bad luck you cannot patent this idea as it is already in use, see for instance this paragrpah on reflection , describing such an efficiency increasing trick.
Actually i was positively surprised by MSO 2003, in which things like document comments were much neater than before.
Unfortunately OO feels a need to mimick the unlogical menu structure of MSO, for instance the location of Options and Preferences. But it looks as if OO thought a bit longer about it than MSO.
I haven't tried OO for ages and i must say, it used to be a bit of a chore to use it but now it feels excellent.
You made me doubt and actually i almost thought you were right, but then I looked at this, where it is first denied by Nicolai, but then restated in different words.
With a scripting language capable of giving directory contents and opening files (php, asp, python, etc), anyone can write such a search engine. No degree required.
This document in the first paragraphs describes how to get to files which are not public.
So you also need to take the sensitive files out of the public directory, which is easy but hardly ever done. (You can easily make a script to serve the files in non-public directories to those entitled to).

Any more reason than that? FF is a not very large, and if powerful XUL applications appear, why would ppl hesitate to install ff to use them?

are you sure about the less smelly part? i heard motorcycles have similar emissions to cars. but hat was ten years ago.

the leeching part is your own invention pal.
Your rigid calvinistic outlook surprises and scares me. A personal advice: try to respect and like other people. You may be surprised at what you get back.
There are many hues between black calvinistic and fluroescent hedonistic, for instance colourful happiness.
Some people live their whole life being scared of the future. They never enjoy life.
I'm dead serious. OK I missed the AND between stupid AND payed.

"Now come back and insert something 1.2.
Q. What'll happen? "
um... it inserts 1.2?! at least in the english beta for windows...

And at this forum which certainly does not support my views in all things, they quote Nicolai:
"the fund was not secret, but you never asked about it"
You made me doubt and actually i almost thought you were right, but then I looked at this, where it is first denied by Nicolai, but then restated in different words.
I forgot to say, many scripters are blissfully ignorant about most security issues.
