Download Manager Tweak extension
The Download Manager Tweak (DMT) extension allows the download manager
to open in a
separate window, the
sidebar, or a
tab, and adds some optional display changes, which
can be controlled with the many options.
The intent of Download Manager Tweak is in the name. It "tweaks" the Firefox download
manager with small changes and doesn't completely redesign it. It makes some optional
changes to its appearance and allows it to be opened in a separate window, a new tab,
or the sidebar. Additional features beyond appearance include deleting a downloaded
file and re-downloading a mistakenly deleted file. The various appearance changes can
be disabled, if you don't like the look, and just want it to open in a tab or sidebar.

Translations and Localization
- Translations are now being done thru babelzilla.org, so more
should be available in future versions.
- ar, cs, da, de, es-ES, et-EE, fr, hu-HU, it, lv-LV, ko-KR, nl, pl, pt-BR, ro, ru-RU, sr, sl-SI, sr, sv-SE, uk-UA, vi, zh-CN, and zh-TW are translations already handled by babelzilla.
- ca-AD, id, ja, and tr
are legacy translations, which are typically only half complete, and all need work.
- Signing up as a translator at babelzilla is the only sure way that your language will be supported by DMT
