moin moin,
Firefox 57 was released and it does not support traditional add ons.
I've found webextension replacements for a couple. Some are working fine.
Others will take a bit of testing, e.g. uMatrix to replace NoScript and
cookie managers.
I don't see any replacements for It's All Text! which allows editing
textareas via an external text editor.
Anybody know of a good option for FF 57+?
Most importantly, IAT allows external caching of my content for when web
pages and web browsers go kablooey.
Next most importantly, I get to use a real editor without needing to copy
and pasta everywhere.

There used to be a bunch of similar Add ons, but IAT seems to be the only
one that stuck around.
I did find GhostText that depends on editor extentions, but I don't see
anyhing about a webextension version.

For blogs, speaker proposals and many other things I use an external
editor with AsciiDoc and git, then copy and paste in the final version,
but lots of $dayjob stuff is input this, input that. IAT gives me an easy
workflow.
ciao,
der.hans
