where do i put mozilla.cfg/local-settings.js on my OS X 10.6.8 mac?
Hello, I would like to use mozilla.cfg / auto.js (specifying "general.config.filename") on my mac OS X 10.6.8. Tried to put mozilla.cfg in applications/firefox/contents/resources/ and auto.js in applications/firefox/contents/resources/defaults/pref/ and inserted a comment line as the first line in mozilla.cfg. It just won't work. As an example setting I entered "pref("browser.startup.page", 0);" in mozilla.cfg. Many thanks for advice.

Hello carpinus, also, you must tell the application to load the lock file.
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
