# samoware-multisave

A very-special-use-case Firefox extension. 

## Installation

You can't install samoware-multisave as a regular browser extension (it is not signed by Mozilla). Load it as a temporary extension instead:

1. Visit the special Firefox page `about:degugging`
2. Click "This Firefox"
3. Click "Load Temporary Add-on …"
4. Pick the file `manifest.json` inside the extension's project directory. (Actually, you can use any file from the same dir.)

samoware-multisave must be reloaded every time Firefox is started. 


# Usage

The extension button appears only when browsing a specific domain, and only when a single email is displayed. The extension will download all attachments into the same directory and prefix their filenames with the current date.

Click the button to open a file dialog. Here you can choose the directory you want all attachments to be downloaded into. Click OK. That's it.


## Known bugs

* Does not work with Flatpak Firefox (temporary extensions can't seem to be loaded due to [this bug](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1852990)). Use Firefox from Snap instead (`sudo snap install firefox`).
