Fixing Scribe, Redux

Apparently I’m not the only one missing Scribe after upgrading to Firefox 1.5. So I tweaked the install.rdf file in my already souped-up version, and it seems to work fine.

I’ve taken the liberty of making my modded version available for download. If you are the creator of the Scribe extension and you’re mad at me for expropriating your work, please drop me a line. I’m sure we’ll find an amicable solution. In my defense, I sent you a mail months ago and you never answered.

  6. Matt,
    I found this on the scribe site:

    “Is Scribe open source?
    Yes, Scribe is released under the MPL 1.1/GPL 2.0/LGPL 2.1 license.”

    So you’re clear. Thanks for working on it!

  7. Well done! Had been looking for an update on the original site for ages!
    Thanks again for working on someone else’s source-code! After all, that’s what Open-source is all about!!

  9. […] Scribe - allows you to fill out a form once and then save the info to reuse. […]
