two problems on Mac Lion

I have Mac Lion (OS X 10.7.3) and Firefox 12.0.

Well, I'm the last person who built it, making a version that ran on Lion at all.

Since then I've started grad school and have no time to take it on seriously. To my knowledge, no one is actively working on the app. That's sad, but it's a 10 year old project.

That said, you may want to leave a comment with the crash report of the error in case someone wants to try to fix it.

Ho! Well, thanks for the work. I only learned of it recently; I didn't know it was so old and creaky (↓*like me...).

So
1. next time it does that I'll try to remember to save the report and post it.
2. I believe I've already reported it adequately in the post here.

Maybe whoever picks it up will move it to some group site like (damn, I forget the name*↑, too little sleep, space for posting and developing s/w).

It's already hosted on SourceForge. I don't have an easily-accesible Lion system nor do I have enough time to delve back into Xjournal. It seems to work on 10.6 (Snow Leopard) other than when I click on the icon to clear the "post badge," it crashes.

Yeah, that's the site I meant.
