This is a first shot of a Forrest Toolbar for Mozilla 1.0.
The sources of it all are under resources/forrestbar.

What is needed now is:
- feedback on what is missing-what is to remove
- more complex feature requests
- icons (yup, get workin', Bert :-)

There is no uninstall, because it has to be done by hand as with all 
other current Mozilla tools.
They haven't come round to making uninstall automatic AFAIK; when the 
bar is agreed on, I might as well come round to making uninstall.

To upgrade, no problem: just run the install again (ie doubleclick on 
the forrestbar.xpi) and the new version will supplant the old.

Anyway, it works, and there is also an icon of Sam Ruby (I think it's 
him), that could point to the FAQs, which I call askSam ;-) or send a 
mail to the mailing list.

Keep in mind that we can put all sorts of stuff there, and also come up 
with a dialog to send documentation stuff...

Just try it and get your imagination working... :-)
