- Cirilicar (Development)
A Firefox add-on for transforming Latin letters from web pages to Cyrillic. This is useful for the Serbian language. It's been downloaded more than a thousand times. The transformation is done in place, with a single click on add-on button. The DOM is traversed to find all the places where letters should be transformed (with care taken not to transform links, enter infinite loops, and so on).
