Access Hidden Firefox Settings

January 8th, 2010 // 5:16 am @ Amaete Umanah

Firefox only (Windows/Mac/Linux): Firefox extension gui:config adds an advanced settings panel with easy access to options normally hidden behind cryptic about:config options. Once installed, the extension adds a new Advanced Settings item to the Tools menu for accessing the hidden settings. Rather than making you install the add-on to see if the settings apply to you, we’ll just take a quick tour through all of the screens so you can visually figure out if you want to install it or not. The Accessibility tab adds in quite a few useful settings like middle-click paste or changing the backspace key’s default setting to go back a page (an annoyance for many people).Source: Lifehacker
