| 7 | | == Requirements == |
| 8 | | |
| 9 | | 3.6.x - 6.x [[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/|Mozilla Firefox Browser]] |
| 10 | | |
| 11 | | It was originally developed for Firefox 3.6.x and will still work with that version. Since Firefox 4 is no longer supported by Mozilla and Firefox 5 was already superseded by 6, the addon currently works with version 6, too. It is in the process of being updated to version firefox 7. |
| 12 | | |
| 13 | | == Installation == |
| 14 | | |
| 15 | | The "lookmarker[@]deepamehta.org"-Firefox Addon is typically installed through opening the released .xpi-archive-file through drag&drop, file->open or browsing to it's location on your hard disk with your firefox browser. |
| 16 | | |
| 17 | | Alternatively, if you encounter problems with that way of installing it, you can unzip this .xpi archive into a folder and place the extracted folder named "lookmarker@deepamehta.org" directly in your working firefox profile. Such a folder (e.g. on ubuntu) is to find in the users home directory under ".mozilla/firefox/xyz-id.default/extensions/". After you've copied the files into the extensions folder you have to restart your firefox. |
| 18 | | |
| 19 | | == Configuration == |
| 20 | | |
| 21 | | Before starting your firefox browser you have to make sure your deepamehta4 installation is already running. After the installation of the plugin you have to configure it a bit to fit your needs before you can start to use it effectively. You can find and reset the addons-preferences via your "Add On"-Manager and the "Tools"-Menu of firefox. To be able to start bookmarking "Web Resources" to deepamehta you need to place the corresponding icon (showing an eye) via drag & drop into the firefox toolbar of your choice. You may also want to make use the "DeepaMehta Toolbar", but first you have to make it visible via the "Preferences"-Dialog (4.x-7.x) or the "Toolbars"-Menu (3.6.x). Another convenient way to make the "Deepamehta Toolbar" appear out of the nowhere just press 'ALT+V' + 'ALT+T' and then 'ALT+D' to toggle its visibility. |
| 22 | | |
| 23 | | == Usage == |
| 24 | | |
| 25 | | '''Bookmarking Web Resources''' |
| 26 | | On any webpage you are currently browsing just press the beforementioned "Notice"-Button in your toolbar. The URL of the webpage will then be stored as "Web Resource"-Topic in your deepamehta4 installation. During this process you have the chance to give this \"Web Resource\" a title of your choice. |
| 27 | | |
| 28 | | '''Bookmarking selected text passages on a webpage''' |
| 29 | | Furthermore, you can simply create "Note"-Topics after selecting some noteworthy passages of a webpage with your pointer (left click and drag) and then store the selected text as a "Note" associated with a "Web Resource via your firefox context menu (through right-clicking) and then pressing the "Notice"-Button. During this process you will have the chance to give your new "Note" a proper title, the "Web Resource" will get by default the title of the current webpage assigned. |
