Hi,
I stumbled on your interesting extension, installed it at once, and have
a number of remaining questions. I work with Moz 1.6 under Win XP¨SP1..
Questions on saving:
I saved a page, with no tabs. When entering a name, do you have to
write the extension, too? I found no help explaining if this is necessary.
Is there an information about the successful saving?
When opening Tools > MAF > browse open archives: there are no entries.
Questions on presenting your good work:
Why is the preference setting put into the tools menue, and not put
where the other extensions are located? It's under Preferences where a
standard user as I am one would look when searching for preferences.
Why is the extension hidden as a download tool?? I found it because of a
link by Ed Mullen on the Mozilla newsgroup. But I would have NEVER
looked for it in the download tools when I search a save page facility.
I think you unserve your proper work in putting it in that category.
Maybe you could announce it at update.mozilla.org under different
entries? At least a hint should be given to the non-initiated.
Questions on documentation :
I liked the screeshots and the preferences page. They give some hints of
how to do things. And clearly separate explicatioins for Linux from
those for Windows users. The best whould be to write a HowTo for Dummies
for the activities you want to do most often: archive, and look at the
pages, maybe export them?
99% of users are not developers. What you might seem evident is not
evident for ordinary users.
Thanks for your work,
Frank
