Cross Platform Firefox Hack

If you use both a Mac and a PC and have wanted to be able to share your Firefox profile on both machines, then this “hack” is for you.
"Cross-platform Portable Firefox works by using John Haller’s excellent Portable Firefox 1.0.6 on the Windows side of things, and a little script I made on the Mac side of things. The script basically keeps two versions of all user profile files. The reason why is simple: as I am sure some of you have figured out, Windows Firefox profiles are not completely compatible with Mac Firefox, only certain files. So I made a script that only copies Mac-compatible Firefox files to the Mac profile, time consuming, I know, but it works."

No more maintaining separate profiles on separate machines. Very handy for those who work on two platforms.
