## Description

Circle Mouse Gestures (pie menu) is a Firefox add-on that recreates the way mouse gestures were represented in Opera 12. It provides a convenient circle menu with preset actions that can be triggered by holding down the right mouse button and selecting an action. With support for various gestures and customization options, it offers a better implementation of mouse gestures and drag gestures while replacing the regular context menu. Additionally, it includes tools like link preview, tab switcher, bookmarks viewer, image viewer, and page shrinker.
