[oXygen-user] WebView Plugin

[Claudius Teodorescu]

Hi,

The new location for the plugin is
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/claudius108/oxygen-addons/master/oxygen-webview-plugin/addon.xml.
Oxygen is kind enough to update the plugin, even if github servers this
file as text/plain.

So, you want to save the current page as one can do this in Firefox, by
clicking on Save Page As...?
