Problem

I recently switched to XFCE, using the NOX theme. Unfortunately, Firebug’s tabs use the same color as NOX’s background color.

grey text + grey background = invisible tabs!

This is extremely specific, nobody’s going to use it except me but I know I will need it whenever Firebug is updated.

Solution

Change Firebug!

$ mkdir myfirebug
$ cd myfirebug
$ unzip /path/to/firebug@software.joehewitt.com.xpi
$ vim skin/classic/win/firebug.css

Now, edit the color in the panelTab rule.

Zip everything and install it in Firefox.

$ cd myfirebug
$ zip -r custom-firebug@software.joehewitt.com.xpi *
