User script

A user script is a computer program that is typically written in a scripting language and executed by a web browser. User scripts can be used to customize the behavior of a web page or application. For example, a user script might be used to automatically fill in online form fields, or to display a notification when a new message is received.

User scripts are typically written in JavaScript, although they can also be written in other scripting languages such as ActionScript or VBScript. User scripts are typically stored as text files with a ".user.js" file extension. When a web page or application is loaded, the user script is executed automatically.

User scripts can be installed manually, or they can be installed automatically using a user script manager. User script managers are browser extensions that provide a user interface for managing user scripts. Popular user script managers include Greasemonkey for Firefox and Tampermonkey for Chrome.

How do user scripts work?

User scripts are pieces of code that can be used to customize the behavior of a web page or web application. They are typically written in JavaScript and can be used to change the appearance or behavior of a page.

User scripts are typically used to add new features to a page, or to change the behavior of existing features. For example, a user script could be used to add a new button to a page that opens a new window, or to change the color of all links on a page.

User scripts are usually written by third-party developers and are not affiliated with the site or application they are used on. User scripts are typically distributed through online communities, such as user script repositories.

User scripts are usually executed in the context of the web page or application they are used on. This means that they have access to the same variables and objects as the page or application itself. This can be used to change the behavior of a page, but it can also be used to inject malicious code into a page.

User scripts can be used to customize the behavior of any web page or web application. However, they are most commonly used to customize the behavior of web-based applications, such as webmail clients and social networking sites.

Is Tampermonkey a virus?

Tampermonkey is a browser extension that allows users to customize the way they interact with web pages. While it is not a virus, it can be used to install malicious code on a computer. Therefore, it is important to only install Tampermonkey from trusted sources, and to carefully review any code that is installed through the extension.

What is Tampermonkey script?

Tampermonkey is a free browser extension and the most popular userscript manager for Google Chrome. With Tampermonkey installed, users can customize and control website behavior and functionality with a variety of so-called "userscripts."

Userscripts are small pieces of code that can be used to change the behavior of a web page. Tampermonkey makes it easy to find and install userscripts, and also provides a convenient interface for managing them.

Tampermonkey is available for a variety of browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari, and Opera. What language are userscripts written in? The vast majority of userscripts are written in JavaScript. However, there are a small number of userscripts that are written in other languages, such as Python, Ruby, and VBScript.

How do I make a Greasemonkey script?

Greasemonkey is a plugin for the Mozilla Firefox web browser that allows users to customize the functionality of web pages they visit. Greasemonkey scripts are written in JavaScript and can be used to add new features to web pages, change the behavior of existing features, or to perform other customizations.

To create a new Greasemonkey script, you will first need to install the Greasemonkey plugin for Firefox if you have not already done so. Once the plugin is installed, you can create a new script by clicking the "New User Script" button on the Greasemonkey menu (which can be accessed by clicking the Greasemonkey icon on the toolbar).

This will open a window with some basic information about the script, such as its name and description. The most important part of this window is the "Included Pages" section, which specifies the URL patterns that the script will run on. You can either specify specific pages, or use wildcards to match a group of pages.

Next, you will need to actually write the script itself. The Greasemonkey menu provides a link to a "starter kit" which contains some basic information and code templates that can be used to get started. Once you have written your script, you can test it by visiting one of the URLs that you specified in the "Included Pages" section. If everything is working as expected, you can then install the script by clicking the
