## Installation ## Installation
Shellfox uses a native program in order to run commands; installing only the add-on isnt enough. Currently, the native program has only been tested on GNU/Linux, though it is likely to work on BSDs, and potentially macOS. Shellfox has two components: A Firefox extension, and a native script that the extension uses to run commands.
You can install the Firefox extension from [Firefox Add-ons (AMO)](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/shellfox).
The native script has only been tested on GNU/Linux, though it is likely to work on BSDs, and potentially macOS. It can be installed like so:
First, download the repository: [shellfox.zip](https://hak.xwx.moe/jadedctrl/shellfox/archive/master.zip) First, download the repository: [shellfox.zip](https://hak.xwx.moe/jadedctrl/shellfox/archive/master.zip)
Then, in the repositorys directory, open a terminal and run: Then, extract the repositorys ZIP file. Enter the unpacked `shellfox/` folder and, from a terminal, run:
``` ```
$ sudo make native-install $ sudo make native-install
``` ```
After that, you can install the add-on; then, voilà! After that, make sure you have [the extension](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/shellfox) installed; then, voilà!
### From terminal
To install solely using your terminal:
```
$ curl https://hak.xwx.moe/jadedctrl/shellfox/archive/master.tar.gz | tar -xzv

This add-on was inspired by [Textern](https://github.com/jlebon/textern/), which allows you to edit text-boxes with an external editor like [Emacs](https://gnu.org/software/emacs). Its very useful, I highly recommend it!
