Making RSS editor work with latest Firefox
RSS editor no longer seems to be main
tained and when you try to install in a 2.x version of firefox it does not insta
ll as it says version incompatible. You can still make this beautiful extension
work by hacking it a little.Just use
an unzipper like www.7-zip.org or your favourite program and edit the file inst
all.rdf from the extension .xpi lilke rsseditor-0.0.9.1.xpi.
Edit the section near the bottom which says like
<em:maxVersion>1.5.0.*&l
t;/em:maxVersion>
for firefox , and change it to <em:maxVersion>3.5.0
.*</em:maxVersion>
Now try installing the extension again and voila it will start working.
Similarly you can make other extensions work by changing the install.rdf file.
