[kwlug-disc] Firefox 57? Now with NoScript!

[doug moen]

Your problem with not seeing the status bar at the bottom of the window
(containing link urls), and having the scroll bar indicator cut off at the
bottom, and generally having pages being truncated, might all be the same
problem.

It says to try resizing the window.

Now that NoScript is ported, I'm about to try FireFox 57 myself. Thanks for
all the updates on this list.
