Greasemonkey scripts: how?

[Mark S.]

Hi guys,

I've been trying for quite a while to install greasemonkey scripts in Iron, without success (no success in Chrome either).

I'm currently using Windows 7. Already tried to create the folder User Scripts in "C:\Users\me\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\User Scripts" when trying with Chrome, I've put the script there and no success...

What should I do? I added --enable-user-scripts at the end of the shortcuts too, I don't know what I'm missing here, this should be easy stuff right?

Whenever I install a script it will appear in my Extensions page, but it won't work.


Thank you for your time.

since version 4 Chrome officially supports GreaseMonkey User Scripts, you don't need to do that now

You should be able to click the Install button on the userscripts.org page and then it will start installing as if it were another Chrome extension.

Since I'm using Iron. Where do I find Greasemonkey to make the userscripts work?

It works the same way in every Chromium derivative: Click the "Install" button to make Iron install the UserScript as if it were another extension.

GreaseMonkey is only available for Firefox; three of the other major browsers (Chrome, Opera, and Konqueror) have UserScript support built-in, while the remaining two have their own bolt-on implementations (IE6-8 has IE7Pro, while Safari on the Mac has GreaseKit).
