This Menu solution enables you to:

  • have centralized menu to open all your webbrowsers
  • run a different browser when a web page is not loading/ working properly
  • use Firefox sync on Basilisk (using a 2018 version)
  • test a new version of a webbrowser without replacing your "stable" version
  • run a win32 fork in your older computer with WinXP but keeping your current profile
  • manage configuration through a config file and without need of programming skills (only Mac/Linux)

Real and useful scenarios:

  • Do a FF sync with Basilisk2018 but keep as your main browser an updated Basilisk2019(Palemoon Sync)
  • Run Waterfox on a webpage which is not loading properly with Basilisk.
  • Run Serpent/Centaury (Basilisk forks) on your WindowsXP 32bits or ReactOS but keep as your main browser an updated Basilisk2019
  • Run MyPal (PM fork) on your WindowsXP 32bits or ReactOS but keep as your main browser an updated Palemoon
