New Gestures Build
19th May 2003
There’s a new nightly build of the Mozilla mouse gestures plugin which supports Firebird 0.6 and has a preferences panel, complete with options for setting up custom gestures. I missed the customise button at first (Tools -> Options -> Extensions -> Mouse Gestures -> Settings -> Edit Mappings) but it’s very powerful, if slightly confusing. It’s nice to be able to change gestures to the right mouse button without digging in to about:config as well.
