I use Firebird every day on my Windows 2000 box at work, and on Linux at home, and think it's a great browser. That said it really annoys me that I'm forced to use Mozillas built in editor whenever I wish to view a pages source. Editors are a very personal choice and are arguably the most important program on any developers machine, and yet whenever I view source I'm stuck in this cut-down editor.
Perhaps it's there as a demo of what XUL and other Mozilla technologies are capable of, and I can see the appeal in having a cross platform editor that does not rely on a native binary, but I'd love to have the choice of using an external editor. Perhaps there should be a radio button in the preferences that allows: a) Use Mozillas built in editor to view source b) Use my external editor to view source: [path to editor] I'm currently using the mozex extension but this does not change the behaviour of the Page Source menu item. I also note that in the authors FAQ (http://mozex.mozdev.org/faq.html) he says: "Mozex is a very ugly hack, in the most negative sense of the word. Its functions should be included in Mozilla/Firebird. Mozex is not intended to become a "standard" tool and it definitely should go away as soon as possible. Please bug the developers of Mozilla to provide sane, documented and complex support for external programs as a part of Mozilla/Firebird." Any chance of this happening? If not, are there any workarounds/hacks that can accomplish this?
