Save Firefox profiles Linux

Change the following:
ramdomstring.default in CACHE
You can found it here in your home folder
cd .mozilla/firefox
Now you can see the randomstring.


#!/bin/sh

FF=$HOME/.mozilla/firefox
PROFILE=`grep "^Path" $FF/profiles.ini | awk -F"=" '{print $2}'`
CACHE=$PROFILE/Cache
DATUM=$(date +"%Y%m%d-%H:%M:%S")

test -d $FF/$CACHE
rm $FF/$CACHE/*

cd /
cd $FF
tar -cf $HOME/firefox_$DATUM.tar --exclude=Cache $FF
bzip2 -z $HOME/firefox_$DATUM.tar

Script updated (thanks for this info)
