FWIW, mnenhy already displays Xface ;-) Take a look at the diff I posted, you'll see what was needed to fix the extension. Apparently, there was a change in ES6 syntax? https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8930566 https://www.sitepoint.com/preparing-ecmascript-6-let-const/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECMAScript#6th_Edition_-_ECMAScript_2015 AFAIU, this is unrelated to the push for "WebExtensions". https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2015/08/21/the-future-of-developing-firefox-add-ons/ https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebExtensions Regards. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
