Installing the Mozilla Add-On SDK

Pre-requisites: You need to have Python 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7 installed!

1. Download it!

2. This works for both Mac and Linux users. Open a terminal window.
First extract the file contents by typing this:

 tar -xf addon-sdk.tar.gz

And then navigate to the root directory of the SDK by typing this:

  cd addon-sdk

Now, type this:

  source bin/activate

and, if this doesn't work, type:

  bash bin/activate

3. You now should see something like this in your command promp:

  (addon-sdk)~/mozilla/addon-sdk >

4.Let's see if everything is installed! Type:

  cfx

You should see something like Usage: cfx [options] [command] followed by many lines.

And here's how you can create a simple add-on.
