Right-click in Firefox to Subscribe in FeedDemon

“Inspired” isn’t the word.

“Edited” may well be, however :-)

After seeing the NewsGator/Firefox right-click to subscribe plugin by Stuart Hamilton, I got jealous, so I’ve grabbed it and created a new plugin to work with FeedDemon. Stuart, hope you don’t mind.

Torsten Rendelmann also created a generic feed URI extension, but FeedDemon doesn’t support that yet (although it will when Nick is well enough to finalise version 1.1). Am I right in thinking that the feed URI scheme won’t work if you use a service like Bloglines?

Anyway, try it out and let me know if it works; there may be a problem with installing it to a user profile rather than application wide, but that hasn’t been verified. You should just be able to click the above link to trigger the install; if not, save the .xpi file to disk, then drag and drop it onto the Firefox browser window. You’ll need to restart Firefox to enable the extension.
