I haven't found any way to open the .xpi file on my Mac to extract the clipper.js file. A quick Google didn't reveal any clues, either. Any advice would be helpful.
Per your question, I do not, nor have I ever used Outlook on my Mac.
XPI is nothing more than a zip file, so if you can't do open with and use your default archive tool, then just copy it to your desktop and rename the file to zip and then open it that way, it will work just fine. I am not sure what Mac uses by default anymore but given it has been doing zip for over 2 decades, I suspect it will be there. I can provide you the modified clipper file source so you can modify it and repackage it and it will be fine. You can also preserve the original xpi somewhere so you can quickly do a rollback when we are done. I'll try to get that posted today, but I am juggling a few things, so bear with me.
Also, regarding packaging, what I do is use WinRAR, it is excellent in opening, and when you modify the file to automatically detect and repackage for you this is the most stable way to do it to avoid damaging the file structure, you can easily download a fully functional trial version here :
