Devtools GCLI connect command
According to this page: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/GCLI#Commands
There is a connect command:
> connect Connect to a remote server: subsequent commands will be run on the server.
.. but it's neither in the Firefox, Firefox Nightly or Firefox Developer Edition.
What I would like is to connect via GCLI to another firefox instance, and execute commands on the remote instance, which the "connect" sounds exactly like.
Hope anyone can share some info regarding the connect command.
Thanks, Mark

It got removed in Firefox 30 as a separate command. I don't know if is is available via other ways.

Hello maksi, did you paste it or write the command in the toolbar ?
I tried to write it, but it just tries to parse it as the "context" command.
Also, I'm using Windows 8.1 - maybe that has something to do with it ?
