Firefox Prefswitch Adds Config Parameters To The Status Bar
The Firefox web browser stores a lot of its preferences in config files. Many advanced users know that the about:config parameters displays many of those preferences directly in the web browser, offering options to edit parameters and settings directly while Firefox is running.
Most basic preferences, like changing the homepage, switching scripting languages on or off, configuring web proxy servers, and changing privacy and history features are accessible from the options menu as well.
Both ways to change parameters have the disadvantage that it takes time to change the settings. That's fine if ithey are one-time or once-a-month changes, not so if the changes are made on a daily or even hourly basis.
