Ubiquity doesn't require you to restart Firefox as you develop. That's a barbaric act, and we want none of it. Instead, Ubiquity reloads the commands every time it is summoned. When you are using the built-in editor then you don't even need to save!

To open the Ubiquity command editor, summon Ubiquity (control/alt + space) and use the "command-editor" command. Throughout this tutorial, when we want you to run a command in Ubiquity, we'll say '''Ubiq''' it. For instance, to open the editor, just Ubiq "command-editor".
