Steps to Build FireFox
## At the prompt enter: cvs co mozilla/browser/config mozilla/client.mk and a mozilla sub folder will be created inside the proj folder
## go to the mozilla folder: cd mozilla
## Create a file named .mozconfig using notepad or someother editor and place it in the mozilla directory. The contents for this file can be obtained from the Configure Build FireFox Optionspage Options page at the Mozzilla.org developer center[ http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Configuring_Build_Options#Firefox_Optimized_Static]. The last line of the .mozconfig file disables the installer which will makes NSIS unnecessary. If this line is missing or omitted then NSIS must be installed within it's own directory and not the bin directory. ## This must be added to the path.
## Download the source files by typing make -f client.mk checkout at the prompt
## To compile the source type make -f client.mk build
