Instruction on the installation of second instance of Gmail Notifier on Firefox

[inbasic]

It is fairly simple to install second instance of Gmail Notifier on Firefox. It is useful for those who prefer get separate notification for different mail accounts. At the moment you need to hack the code as follows:

1. Change the identification here https://github.com/inbasic/ignotifier/blob/master/src/package.json#L127
   example: jid0-GjwrPchS3Ugt7xydvqVK4DQk8Ls to jid0-GjwrPchS3Ugt7xydvqVK4DQk8Ls-2
2. Change toolbar identification here https://github.com/inbasic/ignotifier/blob/master/src/lib/main.js#L50
   example: igmail-notifier to igmail-notifier-2
3. Replace all #igmail-notifiers to the name defined in the second step (#igmail-notifier-2)
4. Compile the extension. Instruction is available here: https://github.com/inbasic/ignotifier/blob/master/README.md
5. Install the newly compiled extension and configure it to listen to a single account from extension's setting

How can you have 2 different sets of cookies for Gmail?

[inbasic]

well, right now the extension uses an XMLHttpRequest object:
https://github.com/inbasic/ignotifier/blob/master/src/lib/main.js#L804-L840
... and this object has access to the global browser cookies:
https://github.com/inbasic/ignotifier/blob/master/src/lib/main.js#L839

If you want to access to different cookies, I would say you need to call the XMLHttpRequest object from a location (another window perhaps) that has access to the secondary cookies e.g. instead of req = .... you need that_window.req = ....
