External application launcher for Firefox 3.0...3.5

I discover a very interesting extension for Firefox. This small application named external_application_buttons launches other application from Firefox.

It is particularly interesting for TexLexan because I think it will be possible to modify this extension to make it able to start texlexan with the current url of the page as argument.

So the user will have a summary in a new window and an archive on the disk of the current page, and that will require just one click on a button.

Probably that will take a couple of weeks to recode the "external_application_buttons" for this new job.

The addon is here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/12892
