Rather than put them into the about:config, set them in the user.js file. It doesn't exist by default, but creating it and putting these entries will make the settings for you when you start. (This in fact is what Firefox DOES when you edit those entries)
Another note:
Besides the configuration options available under the Tools menu, typing about:config in the address bar will open up a Firefox configuration file. The good news is your cannot mess anything up permanently. Changes made to about:config are stored in a file that is not present by default; user.js in the Mozilla profile folder. To go back to the bone stock configuration, simply delete this file and it is like the changes never happened.
To locate the directory housing the configuration file:
| Code: | On Windows XP/2000, the path is usually %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\default.xxx\, where xxx is a random string of 3 characters. Just browse to C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ and the rest should be obvious.
On Windows 95/98/Me, the path is usually C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\default.xxx\
On Linux, the path is usually ~/.mozilla/firefox/default.xxx/. |
