Run without arguments:

./motleyfox.sh

the script defaults to the equivalent of:

./motleyfox.sh Home:navy Work:gray

For each NAME or (NAME:COLOR) it is invoked with, it:

1. Creates a copy of the Firefox Application
   • (a separate application allow Command+Tab switching)
2. Updates the application
   1. Creates a launch script that loads the dedicated profile by default
   2. Updates the application icon
      • A different Icon reduces confusion (I also recommend installing distinct Themes add-on)
3. Creates a dedicated profile, if one does't already exist

• Execution
  • GitHub - mklement0/fileicon: macOS CLI for managing custom icons for files and folders · GitHub
    • (motleyfox.sh will still complete successfully even if it can't update the application icon)
• Development

    • GitHub - koalaman/shellcheck: ShellCheck, a static analysis tool for shell scripts · GitHub
