>Description:
        the firefox pkg includes installation of a 'remote' control tool
        which is meant to find the firefox instance running on your 
        $DISPLAY and make it do things. It doesn't work.

        the Netscape remote.c demonstration client also doesn't work.
        
        
>How-To-Repeat:
        install firefox, try using the remote client.

        
>Fix:
        this hasn't worked for some time. This is a fresh send-pr to
        try and trigger the pkg into a state to tag this problem
        since previous send-pr are very old, and probably show against
        mozilla or even netscape.
