 # Current development version: 0.9.51
 
+## Whitelisting /var
+
+Add "include /etc/firejail/whitelist-var-common.inc" to an application profile and test it. If it's working,
+send a pull request. I did it so far for some more common applications like Firefox, Chromium etc.
+
+## Profile build  tool
+`````
+$ firejail --build appname
+`````
+The command builds a whitelisted profile. If /usr/bin/strace is installed on the system, it also
+builds a whitelisted seccomp profile. The program is run in a very relaxed sandbox,
+with only --caps.drop=all and --nonewprivs. Programs that raise user privileges are not supported
+in order to allow strace to run. Chromium and Chromium-based browsers will not work.
+
+Example:
+`````
+$ firejail --build vlc ~/Videos/test.mp4
+
