Overview
I get very cranky when sites don't behave the way I want them to behave. So I wrote a bunch of Greasemonkey scripts to, well, make certain web sites more enjoyable.
Sharing these scripts makes me a wee bit nervous. They expose both my posting habits and the types of boards I frequent. And since I initially had no intention of sharing these scripts, they are not configurable via any fancy dialogs. If you don't like what they do, just pop in there and edit it yourself. You can report script bugs and ask me questions on this message board. However, if I've stopped visiting a particular site, I won't maintain scripts that were specific to that site.
Please visit the following pages for more information:
- Go to Firefox Add-ons to install the Greasemonkey extension. This extension works on Netscape as well as Firefox, but IE users are out-of-luck. This page has instructions on how to install the Greasemonkey extension.
- Please refer to this page for instructions on how to install, configure, and uninstall user scripts.
- Search userscripts.org for scripts to install. However, be careful! Some scripts may be malicious. If in doubt, don't install a script.
