I got some great feedback after I updated URL Fixer to be compatible with Fennec, Mozilla's mobile browser, and I'm happy to announce that I've been able to add Fennec compatibility to four more add-ons:

<p>I got some great feedback after I <a href="http://www.chrisfinke.com/2008/10/29/url-fixer-now-compatible-with-fennec-mobile-firefox/">updated URL Fixer</a> to be compatible with <a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec">Fennec, Mozilla's mobile browser</a>, and I'm happy to announce that I've been able to add Fennec compatibility to four more add-ons:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4664/">TwitterBar</a>: Post to Twitter from Firefox's address bar</li>
<li><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4949/">AutoAuth</a>: Automatically submits authentication dialogs</li>
<li><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7115/">YouTube Comment Snob</a> (still in the sandbox): Filter out lame comments on YouTube</li>
<li><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2175/">Slashdotter</a> (still in the sandbox): Adds features to the <a href="http://slashdot.org/">Slashdot</a> website</li>
</ul>
<p>So far, I've found it pretty easy to port add-ons to Fennec, with the following caveats:</p>
<ul>
<li>You can't install add-ons in Fennec by opening them from your computer; I wrote a script to copy the add-on directly into the Fennec profile, much like an add-on IV drip - straight into the bloodstream!</li>
<li>There's no easy access to the error console , but you can open it manually if you grab the <a href="chrome://global/content/console.xul">address</a> from Firefox.</li>
<li>No DOM Inspector.  For now, just browse <a href="http://hg.mozilla.org/mobile-browser/file/3d4513d61c4b/chrome/content/">the source</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>It seems that all of these issues could be solved with a "Fennec Add-on Development" extension; maybe that will be my next project, unless easier solutions already exist. </p>
