CLEO 3.0

Compact Library Extension Organizer


Version 4.2 Released


CLEO help screenCLEO is a Firefox extension that works with FEBE to package any number of extensions/themes into a single, installable .xpi file.

Why?  Consider this: I, as an extension developer, have several different Firefox profiles.  Whenever I start a new extension, I create a new profile for testing, debugging, etc.  In this profile, I like to have a dozen or so developer related extensions installed.  With CLEO, I can packaged all these extensions together into a single, installable xpi.

You may have a list of your favorite extensions/themes that you would like to share with others.  With CLEO, you can gather them all together into a single file (called, perhaps, "My favorite extensions.xpi") and post them on a webpage.  Others can install the whole batch with a just a couple of clicks!  In fact, if you have assembled a Cleopack you would like to share, see the Cleopack Blog.
