i want the "modern" version of this "browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk" (no quotes) i have a problem where when trying to open .txt attachments, i am continually asked where and what i want to do with it. and yes i have told FF that i want to "do this always" but it asks anyways, that is, unless i tell it to save the file. then FF is fine, but i want FF to open it and it wont. this is the only "code" i can find to fix this.
