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.

    • Ubuntu gets second-ever snapshot release for Questing Quokka by Paul Hill Canonical has announced the release of Ubuntu 25.10 Questing Quokka Snapshot 2, a monthly development build that gives testers and developers a base from which to work on software for the upcoming release. Snapshot 1 was released at the end of May and Snapshot 3 is scheduled for July 31. Notably, the release date of Snapshot 2 and 3 have moved since last month. The Snapshot 2 update is available for various Ubuntu spins, such as Kubuntu and Lubuntu. To download, head to Ubuntu CD Image and go to the link for the version you want, such as ubuntu/. Once you’ve picked, go to releases/ > 25.10/ > snapshot-2/ and download the appropriate image for your computer - most people will want ‘64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop image’. The announcement mentions that these snapshot builds are not production ready, so you should not be installing them on a machine you use to do your work and daily computing. Canonical said that these builds should be seen as “throwaway artifacts”, whatever that means. If you’re an Ubuntu developer, you should submit your changes in the Ubuntu archive by July 28 to see it in the third snapshot. If you make any changes, Canonical asks you to update the Release Notes with the updates that you have worked on, so everyone knows what changed. Speaking of release notes, Canonical has been updating them incrementally. So far, we know that GNOME 48 is being used alongside the Linux 6.14 kernel. The use of GNOME 48 means that Ubuntu 25.10 only supports Wayland sessions as X.org has finally been dropped. Wayland has been used for a while on Ubuntu, so most people shouldn't have any issues as a result of the switchover. If you want to try out Ubuntu 25.10 Snapshot 2, you can find the download links over on the Ubuntu website. Just remember, these are not intended to be used on production machines!
    • Garmin Dash Cam X310: 4K dash cam on sale at lowest price for $334.99 by Paul Hill Dash cam footage can be vital for drivers who get into accidents as it can be used to help with insurance claims if you’re involved in an accident, outside of that, it can be used for filming your trips or recording freak events such as asteroids burning up in the atmosphere. If you’re still without one, or looking to upgrade, take a moment to read about the Garmin Dash Cam X310 which has been reduced by 16% from $399.99 to $334.99. To briefly touch on the features before we get started, the X310 is a compact 4K Ultra HD touchscreen dash cam with a 140-degree field of view, ensuring it captures everything. There’s also a built-in Clarity Polarizer to reduce glare from the windshield and it features automatic recording. The main attraction of the Garmin Dash Cam X310 is undoubtedly the 4K Ultra HD video which will capture fine details, and the 140-degree field of view that ensures it doesn’t miss anything important. Coupled with this, the Clarity Polarizer helps to reduce glare from the windshield so that your video footage is better. It also includes HDR which improves the night vision. Aside from having a touchscreen, the X310 comes with voice control allowing you to save video and audio hands-free, meaning you can focus on driving. It supports multiple languages - English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, and Swedish. Other features include built-in GPS for recording the location, date, and time of incidents; parking guard and live view for security while parked (required a paid Vault subscription); and its compact design which allows it to sit “virtually unnoticed” on the windshield. Please note that the product description says some jurisdictions may restrict the use of dashcams, so check your local laws before buying. If you are looking for a high-resolution dash cam with voice control and advanced parking surveillance (paid subscription), the X310 could be for you. The main downside of this product is that it’s still at a premium price point, despite it being at its lowest price on Amazon. If you don’t mind this, it could definitely be a great choice for you.
