I can wait, too. But I'll tell ya something. You don't realize just how great something is you lose it. Yes, only for a day or two. Nevertheless, Firefox is another animal altogether without MTLI.

I miss the option to close all windows when the main window is closed.

Actually many of the features on MTLI seem artificial and grafted on. Maybe they should be branched so a problem with the main code (eg this one) won't affect the other goodies.

It can be made into an extension called "MR Tech's Goodies", "MR Tech's Knick Knacks" or the like.

It's still there for me under the Miscellaneous > Miscellaneous tabs in MTLI options. It's not there for you?

@ gssq,

Ah, I see. My bad. Guess I wasn't paying close enough attention. Sorry.

Just in case you haven't noticed: the toolbar buttons for accessing themes and extensions are gone.

Also gone are menuitems for theme switcher and other MTLI functions.

With the MTLI issues of today, I figured this would be a good time to build fresh new profiles. One for 1.5.0.5 and one for 2.0a3. Just finished a brand spankin' new Bon Echo profile. A good experience, actually. Weeded out about 8 or so extensions I no longer used. Having archived all my extensions/themes with MTLI, installing them was a snap. Tomorrow, it's 1.5.0.5's turn. :mrgreen:

I really want to wait for the translation, but in the mean time here are two temp builds:

http://www.mrtech.com/extensions/temp/l ... _en-US.xpi

thanks.

Yes! Not only does it fix the problems noted above, but it also restored function to the toolbar restart button.

For some reason I can't seem to install it at all. :(
Looks like it installs I reboot FF and then some incompatible extensions with FF 2.0a3 get marked incompatible again. And never gets installed, freaking weird I tell ya.

@ Lanik

Weird to say the least. I installed dev_en-US.xpi without a hitch. We have the same build. Though I did just build a new profile.

I might have to do that. :( Not that I really want to right now.
