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.
