very nice - thanks for the info

bye

Example:
x-test0 = 0000 @ http://a-z\./]*
x-test = 1234 @ https://localhost/*
x-test2 = 5678 @ http://www\.mozilla\.org/*

and so on… Just an idea

Feel free to add yourself as a CC on this.

I have a lot of other features to add first, but I’ll add this to the roadmap for version 0.8 or 0.9.
