I'm looking for an automated way to have firefox-esr reload its window at
regular intervals.  There's a site to which I like to stay connected that
logs me off if the window is inactive for long.

For the past few years I've been using the ReloadEvery plugin for this.  With
the upgrade to firefox-esr 52, though, this stopped working, probably as
explained here:

I tried the newest ReloadEvery (v45) available online, but it still doesn't
work.  Before ReloadEvery, I used to set up a shell command that would
periodically do this:

  /usr/bin/iceweasel -remote openurl\([URL]\)

The -remote call also no longer works.  Any other ideas on how to do this?
Thanks.
