GreaseMonkey Scripts (Firefox Extension)


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any scripts for neowin or anyother useful scripts? If you don't know what GreaseMonkey is...

Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension which lets you to add bits of DHTML ("user scripts") to any web page to change its behavior. In much the same way that user CSS lets you take control of a web page's style, user scripts let you easily control any aspect of a web page's design or interaction.

You can do things like add a delete button in Gmail, Yahoo Launch in WMP, Remove any about.com results from Google results, Make sure Gmail uses secure connection everytime, Hotmail single window, plus hundreds of other scripts and anything else you can come up with using DHTML.

Well, I have it as an extension, but I rarely use Firefox.

I wonder how compatible userjs snipplets are with greasemonkey scripts though..

I though they don't use the same exact synthax, but I'm sure both could benefit from converting each others scripts.

I use it.

An almost official wiki-site is set up here with nearly every script that comes out.

I don't personally use any that interacts with Neowin, though. Mainly Gmail, flickr and then some other general ones.

"Give me back the web" has got a whole new meaning :p

Never could get it working. Might try again after the nightlys are where you can install extensions again. I can't right now.

Add notes to web page script.

"So I ran across this site a while back that let you create notes in your browser that could be saved, re-opened, even subscribed to via RSS.

Tony over at Ponderer.org has taken it a step further and combined it with Greasemonkey, the Firefox extension that lets you activate user scripts on just about any web site.

Using Greasemonkey, you can use the WebNote script to make notes on top of existing websites. This could be a great tool for designers who are reviewing concepts with a client or just want to make notes of something they see that they like. Check it out if you have a chance."

Opera 8 users should also have some GreaseMonkey support now:

More information about what compatibility you can expect, and how Opera is slightly different:

And just when I thought this couldn't get any cooler....

Platypus is a Firefox extension which lets you modify a Web page from your browser -- "What You See Is What You Get" -- and then save those changes as a Greasemonkey script so that they'll be repeated the next time you visit the page.

    • It's not really related to the speed of the system. A menu that appears instantly is of course going to feel more responsive than a menu that slides or fades into view.
    • How did two companies come up with the same stupid name for the same stupid type of product?
    • I honestly think this does not make any noticable difference to anyone with a PC with average specs.
    • OpenAI takes down all traces of Jony Ive "io" deal following court order by David Uzondu Early this month, we reported that OpenAI was working on a mobile gadget in the form of a screenless, wearable device, born from a newfound partnership (friendship?) between renowned former Apple designer Jony Ive and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. The announcement came with a video that had the two men talking about the future of technology. Well, that video has now been made private on YouTube, and the original announcement page has been taken down. The whole thing is on pause because of a simple trademark dispute. OpenAI was forced to pull the materials following a court order. If you visit the original announcement page, it now says: Despite the legal hassle over the name, the actual business deal seems safe. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the acquisition itself is unaffected by the complaint. So, who is iyO (pronounced eye-oh), the other party in this mess? If the name sounds unfamiliar, its background will not. This iyO company is an independent startup that graduated from X, Alphabet's moonshot factory, and yes, that is the same Alphabet, the parent company of Google. iyO claims to be on a mission to bring "natural language computing" to the masses. A quick look shows two products listed on its website: the Vad Pro, a high-end wired audio device for professionals, and iyO One, a set of AI-powered earbuds the company is calling the "world's first audio computer." A judge reportedly found its trademark lawsuit against OpenAI credible enough to issue the restraining order, suggesting the ChatGPT creator's video could create genuine consumer confusion between the two similarly named ventures.
    • I've set since XP - Best performance in the Performance settings. 11 included. I enable only the show shadows after that, so I can see better fonts and mouse.. But hardly I can say I can see a difference today.
