I would like to add the Pale Moon browser to The cleaning list bot in Windows and in Linux. How could this be done?

Ineuw,

Pale Moon is based off Firefox. Normally you could take the Firefox CleanerML file and tweak the paths, but Firefox is the last cleaner that is written in Python, so the choices are either to do it in Python (which requires extra skills) or sort of start over in CleanerML.

The good news is someone started it (see pale_moon.xml), though it is not complete or up to date.

See CleanerML documentation for instructions on improving that pale_moon.xml file. If you get it working, you can contribute it back to the CleanerML to share with other people. If you need help, just ask.

Thanks Andrew,

The CleanerML documentation and the pale_moon.xml link is sufficient for me to start with. If I can update it, I will.
