Description Dave Grochowski 2007-04-03 02:40:03 UTC 
"The nspluginwrapper is an Open Source compatibility plugin for Netscape 4
(NPAPI) plugins. That is, it enables you to use plugins on platforms they were
not built for. For example, you can use the Adobe Flash plugin on Linux/x86_64,
NetBSD and FreeBSD platforms.

WWW: http://gwenole.beauchesne.info/projects/nspluginwrapper/"

Basically, this wrapper provides similar functionality to the linuxpluginwrapper in ports. It allows users to run Linux browser plugins in a native browser, such as Firefox.

This port differs from linuxpluginwrapper in a few ways:
- The plugins are installed by the user to their local browser configuration, instead of the system browser configuration.
- Plugins are automagically found by running "nspluginwrapper -v -a -i" or can be manually added by running "nspluginwrapper -i path/to/plugin.so".
- No modifications need to be performed to FreeBSD's kernel/userland.
- No modifications need to be made to libmap.conf.
- It just works. =)
