On my keyboard it is the one over the enter-key and shares the "\" key. This will tell Firefox at program launch to open each URL in that line as separated with a "|" as a new tab in the current window.<BR/><BR/>So for example, my line at home looks like this:<BR/><BR/>http://grandstreamdreams.blogspot.com | chrome://newsfox/content/newsfox.xul<BR/><BR/>What this will do is to open NewsFox in 2nd tab on launch. If you want it to be the lead-tab, just swap the URLS between the "pipe" symbol.<BR/><BR/>If you have set NewsFox's to automatically update and look for new feed posts at launch it should work perfectly.<BR/><BR/>That's how I have mine set up.<BR/><BR/>--Cheers!Claushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11692921474310162470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13777170.post-62867458300621647822008-09-18T19:04:00.000-05:002008-09-18T19:04:00.000-05:00That's good. But... is there a way to get NewsFox ...That's good. But... is there a way to get NewsFox to automatically fetch your feeds when you start Firefox and show you a little notification from the bottom of the screen like it does when you've opened NewsFox and it refreshes your feeds? That would be great for me, but as it is I have to open NewsFox to know what's up with my feeds...Nathanielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02073334949813152030noreply@blogger.com
