I was a Seneca School of Communication Arts Student now in a Computer Studies Program(Bachelor in Software Development). Trying to be a jack of all trades, and a master of none.

The current Open Source @ Seneca Logo you see was created by me :)

Create .mozconfig file for your configuration options

Firefox, Default Release Configuration () 

   . $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig
   mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/ff-opt
   ac_add_options --disable-tests

where your build might be?!

mozilla/ff-opt/dist/Minefield.app/Contents/MacOS/ (might be in this folder or just find Minefield using spotlight) mozilla/obj-ff/dist/

Create a test profile if you don't have one

Using finder to find your build: spotlight to 'Minefield' select Minefield.app and browse to show contents; if you double-click it will run minefield

Run: 

   Minefield.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -no-remote -ProfileManager
