• Waterfox browser

    From Maurice@2:250/1 to All on Mon Aug 10 18:09:51 2020

    Inspired by an article in the August edition of Linux Magazine ('Linux
    Pro' in USA?), and in pursuit of a browser nippier than Firefox I have
    been giving Waterfox a try, and was glad to find an RPM that installed smoothly on Mga7 and provided an option to import settings (incl.
    passwords) from Firefox:

    https://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/pclinuxos/pclinuxos/apt/ pclinuxos/64bit/RPMS.x86_64/waterfox-2020.07.1-1pclos2020.x86_64.rpm

    Access to passwords can be found in /Edit/Preferences/Security/Saved-
    logins.
