programming Firefox with MozRepl in Windows 7

Question

I've only seen examples for it in Linux. Does it work in Windows? Can you give an example?

Answer 1

MozRepl works just fine on Windows.

Since it runs as a Firefox plug-in and interacts with Firefox internals, the examples you've seen for Linux should work the same on the Windows version.

The only difference is that you might have to download a third-party Telnet client. I prefer PuTTy personally. Just make sure you select the Telnet protocol and then specify port 4242 (unless you changed it).

I just gave it a shot and everything was fine. I ran through the Tutorial on the site (the same one they walk through in the demo video) and Firefox on Windows behaved just like Firefox on Linux.
