GreaseKit: Greasemonkey Scripts For Safari And More

greasekit.jpg

Greasekit doesn't change much it terms of functionality and not all Greasemonkey scripts will work with GreaseKit, but that's mainly due to limitations in WebKit's Javascript support.

However, the new release does add an interesting feature. Rather than just supporting Safari, GreaseKit enables you to use scripts in any WebKit-based application, and, even better, manage which scripts are used by which applications. That means there's support for the rapidly growing world of site-specific apps, like, for instance, Mailplane .

Site-specific apps run like desktop apps, but interact with a single website. Tools like Adobe's AIR platform, Mozilla's XULRunner and Apple's WebKit are some the key technologies at work behind these applications, but one of the common pitfalls is that outside extensions (like Greasemonkey scripts) don't work.

One of our favorite examples of a site specific app, is MailPlane, a desktop app for interacting with GMail. Although it looks like it's just rendering GMail (it is) it adds niceties like drag and drop attachments and integration with other desktop apps like iPhoto and Growl.

But one of the things we don't like about Mailplane is that we lose all our cool Greasemonkey scripts to enhance GMail's web interface, which is why GreaseKit is an exciting development. Except that none of the Greasemonkey scripts I want to use work with GreaseKit, which is too bad.

Still there are a number of WebKit-compatible Greasemonkey scripts out there so if you're using Mailplane or other site specific apps, like Chris Messina's Diet Pibb , you may will find that GreaseKit suits your needs.

Use Greasemonkey Scripts In IE, Chrome, and Safari

Whether you’re catching up on Facebook or speaking up on Twitter, the Greasemonkey browser add-on can make everything easier–if you’re using Firefox. Since the scripts are all user-written JavaScript-based tweaks, however, a few clicks will have you monkeying away with another browser of your choice. To get started with Greasemonkey, download and install the plug-in, and then check out “ 17 Greasemonkey Scripts to Turbocharge Your Browser .”

Internet Explorer

Trixie in Internet Explorer

If you’re still using IE 7, you might want to try out IE7Pro , which offers similar support for user-created scripts. Though some Greasemonkey scripts will work on IE7Pro, compatibility isn’t guaranteed. Certain aspects of IE7Pro will work in IE 8, but it’s not completely implemented yet.

Google Chrome

greasekit safari

Apple Safari

Apple hasn’t included any official support for user-created scripts for Safari on Windows or the Mac, but Mac Safari can use a combination of SIMBL and GreaseKit to get standard Greasemonkey scripts to work. Mac Safari users can also take advantage of the plug-ins and AppleScripts at Pimp My Safari .

Unfortunately, no equivalent SIMBL/GreaseKit combination exists for Windows Safari users, so you’re probably better off switching to Firefox (if you want Greasemonkey-specific support) or Chrome (if you want to use another WebKit browser with promising extensions).

Installing Greasemonkey Scripts in Safari

Dec 6, 2010

Whether you are new to Mac OS X or a long time user, there’s a decent chance that you use Safari for your daily web browsing activities. If you’ve recently switched from Windows or Linux, you may have been using Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome. You could get those on your Mac, but Safari is already there and it’s made by Apple, so it just works out of the box.

While I like Safari’s integration with Mac OS X, sometimes I wish I could teach it a few tricks – tricks that are often learned only through GreaseMonkey user scripts. Well, Safari 5, as of this writing, does not have a GreaseMonkey plug-in. I was on StackOverflow, (a programming Q&A site which I visit frequently,) and a user there has been working on a user script which adds all kinds of neat functionality to the site. (The script allows users to use keyboard shortcuts and commands to navigate StackOverflow Chat and the main StackOverflow site, instead of using the mouse.) I wanted to test the script, but I didn’t want to use Firefox. I started Googling…

The first relevant result that Google returned was this blog post , on SimpleHelp.net. The blog runs through the process in detail, but I’ll go through it here briefly.

Download and Install SIMBL – (From the SIMBL website) SIMBL, pronounced like “symbol” or “cymbal” enables hacks plugins. In other words, you can “patch” Mac applications to add functionality to them. Next, download GreaseKit . To install it, drag the GreaseKit.bundle file to ~/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins If you don’t have a SIMBL/Plugins/ folder, just create it, then drop GreaseKit.bundle into it. Restart Safari, and you will see a new entry in the menu bar for “GreaseKit”.

That’s all! You should now be able to run user scripts from within Safari. I find it cool that GreaseKit actually detects if you have a raw JavaScript file open that is a user script. Edit:This only works if the file has a .user.js extension apparently. (I learned this from modifying a script and renaming it. On the bright side, Jimmy Wales doesn’t ask for donations anymore.)

I installed SIMBL and GreaseKit today and I am now happily using the user script for the StackExchange websites. (As I said, the script itself is really cool.) Now, maybe I’ll start using user scripts more often…

Security Vulnerability

Sorry, GreaseKit 1.2-1.3 and Creammonkey 0.9-1.1 have security vulnerability . Please upgrade to a newer version.

GreaseKit-1.7.dmg (2008-09-22)

  • Fixed installation problem.
  • Added GM_addStyle and GM_log.
  • Moved "GreaseKit" menu to left of the "Window" menu.
  • And these modification is based on Jiang Jiang 's patch.

Past versions

First, Please install SIMBL .

Please copy "GreaseKit" bundle from the downloaded Disk Image.

Disk Image

And paste the copy in the ~/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins.

Home

Relaunch your Safari.

Menu bar

If the installation is successful, you'll see "GreaseKit" on the menubar!

Compatibility

Greasemonkey scripts are not 100% compatible with GreaseKit because Safari's JavaScript implementation is not compatible with Firefox's and GM_registerMenuCommand is not available in GreaseKit yet.

Many scripts, however, will work in GreaseKit with little or no modification.

GreaseKit is hosted at Google Code .

Has anyone had any luck running greasemonkey scripts in Safari 4 using GreaseKit? I'm enjoying Safari 4, it made me switch back from Firefox, but I would really like to be able to run the link checker script that I've been using with firefox/greasemonkey for a while. Anyone using greaseKit with Safari 4 successfully or know of a compatible link checker plugin?

I had GreaseKit installed before and had the menu item appear in the menu bar. I had wanted to run some Mafia Wars (yeah I know...) scripts but they didn't end up working. So I deleted it because WebKit was giving out these annoying warnings.

Hey Gregg2, I know this is an old thread, but the thread starter gave MKnight attitude because MKnight gave him attitude first. And MKnight linked him to an article that had nothing to do with his question. He clearly asked for help on getting GreaseKit to work with Safari 4. Emphasis was on Safari 4. Before you tell other people to be polite, maybe you should ask yourself if you're being polite, because you came off like a jerk in your post. I'm also having trouble getting GreaseKit to work in Safari 4. It worked fine in Safari 3.

Possible solution... I know part of the issue had to do with running a 64bit specific GK 1.7, using OSX 10.5.8 and Safari 4 (my current setup). Solved the problem by downloading a recompiled version here: http://code.google.com/p/greasekit/issues/detail?id=38#c19 (check out freewizard's link in comment #7.) I'm now running Greasekit and Glims side by side with no issues - hope this helps. BTW, for all of you who don't think GK and your scripts are working, they should be working just fine, it just seems to be an issue with the menu not showing. If you want to check, go to Activity Monitor and inspect Safari's Open Files and Ports. You should see both GK and SIMBL running just fine.

Tampermonkey is one of the most popular browser extension with over 10 million users . It's available for Chrome , Microsoft Edge , Safari , Opera Next , and Firefox .

It allows its users to customize and enhance the functionality of your favorite web pages . Userscripts are small JavaScript programs that can be used to add new features or modify existing ones on web pages. With Tampermonkey, you can easily create, manage, and run these userscripts on any website you visit.

For example, with Tampermonkey, you could add a new button to a web page that lets you quickly share a link on social media, or to automatically fill in a form with your personal information. This is especially useful in the age of digitization, where web pages are often used as user interfaces for accessing a wide range of services and applications.

Additionally, Tampermonkey makes it easy to find and install userscripts created by other users . This means that you can quickly and easily access a vast library of customizations and enhancements for your favorite web pages, without having to spend hours writing your own code.

Whether you're a web developer looking to add new features to your site, or just a regular user looking to improve your online experience , Tampermonkey is a great tool to have in your toolkit.

Easy Script Access

The Tampermonkey's popup is useful for quickly and easily managing installed userscripts. In some browsers you have to manually pin the icon to see it all the time. It allows users to enable or disable scripts, view the status of scripts, and start update checks without leaving the current page. This makes it easy for users to control the behavior of their installed userscripts and customize their browsing experience. Furthermore the number of running scripts is displayed as small number right at the extension icon near the address bar. ( video tutorial)

Script Overview

script overview

Tampermonkey's dashboard shows a clear overview of the scripts that are installed. You can see when they were updated the last time, if they do have a homepage, you can sort them and many more... ( video tutorial)

Multiple Configuration Modes

config mode

You can choose between three different configuration modes Novice, Beginner and Advanced. This allows power user to access and use advanced features and capabilities of Tampermonkey. ( video tutorial)

Automatic Script Update

script update settings

Automatic updates can help to keep you userscripts secure by automatically installing the latest security patches and updates. It can also help to maintain compatibility by automatically installing the latest updates for web page changes. You will also automatically benefit from latest features and enhancements added. You can setup how often the scripts will be checked for updates .

security settings

Only the paranoid survive! Blacklist all sites that never should be accessible by a userscript.

Compatibility

compatibility settings

Tampermonkey offers a compatibility layer for older userscripts and userscripts that were written to run at Greasemonkey (<= 3.x) It tries to detect which options are necessary automatically.

Script Synchronization

sync settings

You're using more than one browser, one at home and one at work? Simply enable Tampermonkey's sync feature to synchronize your scripts.

CodeMirror Editor

editor settings

You need to develop or edit a script? No problem! Tampermonkey comes with a built-in editor .

Syntax Check with ESLint

editor with linter hints

Your script doesn't work? Tampermonkey's syntax check might find the issue... 😅

Rapid development

allow access to file urls

Tampermonkey's editor is OK, but you want to use your own? The solution is to enable file access and to @require the local copy of your script.

You can also try out the Tampermonkey Editors extension to edit the script at vscode.dev

If you're not happy with Tampermonkey (this is unlikely to happen, but who knows 😉), then you can remove it at the browser's extension page.

Extending web browser functionality – greasemonkey for all web browsers.

Ever felt that you have had the need to enhance your web browser, or the functionality of some web site you frequently visit? Here I will explain how to do that.

How to extend web browser functionality

Firefox is of course the uncrowned king of offering extending functionality to its web browser, both through Firefox extensions and with the help of Greasemonkey .

But, and as many people don’t know, all major web browsers offer such a Greasemonkey option, but in various forms. Therefore, let me introduce you to Greasemonkey and userscripts, which basically are helper JavaScripts run through the help of Greasemonkey. Start with installing Greasemonkey (or similar tool) for your preferred web browser:

Firefox – Greasemonkey

Very simple, go to Greasespot , read a little about it and then install Greasemonkey .

Safari – get SIMBL and GreaseKit

If you prefer Safari and is on a Mac, you can extend it with the help of something called SIMBL . It’s a little bit more tricky, i.e. no actual installer, but rather about putting some files in a certain location. Not too scary, but might put some people off.

The upside of this is great, though! It enables fantastic services like those mentioned in Pimp My Safari and through GreaseKit it let’s you run userscripts as well.

Google Chrome – enable Greasemonkey functionality

What’s very exciting is that Google seemed to have thought about this with their Google Chrome web browser. If you follow the instructions in HOW TO: Install Google Chrome Greasemonkey Scripts (Windows Only) , you can add userscripts to a c:\scripts folder (create if needed) on your computer.

Note that the first step in the description isn’t necessary, though – just download the latest official version of Chrome and Greasemonkey will be built-in.

Opera – add userscripts

With Opera, there’s an easy way to point to a local folder on your computer for it to look after userscripts. Just follow the instructions in Opera: Tutorial – User Javascript and off you go!

Internet Explorer – IE7Pro

As with most tasks, Internet Explorer doesn’t really seem to be built for working, no matter what feature-area we’re talking about. However, with the help of IE7Pro you can add some extra functionality to it, and it also lets you run userscripts.

Please note, though, that most userscripts are written with standards-compliant web browsers in mind, meaning that due to improper event handling and such in IE, a lot of userscripts won’t work in it.

Userscripts

Have you gotten your web browser ready and is eager to start out extending it? A first good tip is to go to userscripts.org and find any number of scripts suiting your needs. Bear in mind that all scripts there will work in Firefox, some will not work in Safari, Google Chrome and Opera and most will probably not work in Internet Explorer.

Basically, just test your way forward.

The state of web browser extending

While the above advice offers you help on how to make your favorite web browser become a little better with userscripts, it baffles me that Firefox is so far the only web browser with a proper extension architecture, and officially promoting this to the public. No doubt a huge part of the Firefox success comes from this, and they have achieved it in a great way.

So, the natural move for any other web browser vendor should be to offer this functionality as well, effectively competing with Firefox on the same level. And, if they’re smart, they do it in such a simple way as the Mozilla way, preferably with support for the same extension code, to encourage web developers to port their scripts to their web browser.

Therefore, all other web browsers should step up, right? Right.

I was really excited when I noticed Chrome had greasemonkey support( a few weeks ago) as I figured I could use it too fix whatever I was missing from Firefox, however Chrome sadly doesn’t support any of the GM APIs yet so the limitations have put me of.

' src=

I use Chrome from time to time and didn't know about that capability, thanks! Kinda sad that this can also bring IE quirks to user scripts, but at least the option is there for those who want to write cross-browser scripts.

' src=

Good point. For userscripts just generally enhancing web sites, though, it has been very good for me. Also, it sounds very probable that Google will try to support the existing Greasemonkey APIs a swell.

Yes, that's the risk. Userscripts will be bloated to cover up for all IE shortcomings, so most likely not many will take that route. But, as you say, it's an option for those interested at least.

Yes, it’s quite useful! 🙂

' src=

Yay for Greasemonkey. I use scripts for automatic listing of the referring page in Flickr & for removing ad bar on facebook (ahem).

[…] There are other ways of adding Greasemonkey functionality to your browser […]

Three Safari Plugins: SafariStand, Videobox, and GreaseKit

Three Safari Plugins: SafariStand, Videobox, and GreaseKit

Plugins Galore

Mozilla’s famous and stellar web browser, Firefox, is notorious for its high levels of extensibility. By contrast, Internet Explorer has a strong reputation for being quite closed and proprietary. Apple’s web browser, Safari, is somewhere between these two. Unlike Firefox users, many Mac users aren’t quite aware how many plugin choices they have for their favorite browser.

In this article, I’ll take a look at the top three plugins that every Safari user should have. The first plugin adds some functionality that Apple should have included in the first place. The second plugin lets you download Youtube videos quickly and conveniently from the browser. Finally, the last plugin almost works like magic - letting you create new functionality on sites just though a couple of clicks.

SafariStand

SafariStand gives you a plethora of little goodies that Apple shamelessly hasn’t gotten around to implementing. While there isn’t one jaw dropping feature that makes this plugin spectacular, it’s impressive how many little tweaks that you can do. Perhaps the most useful addition is the sidebar. This lets you have a graphical view (instead of just the tabs) of all the sites that you have open. If you’re doing research, for example, this is absolutely vital as you might have many tabs open with similar names. Seeing the contents of the site however, lets you discern very quickly which tab you’re interested in.

In addition, SafariStand also includes a Quick Search option. Editable in the SafariStand settings, this awesome feature lets you assign a short-hand format that you type into the address bar for any web site. So, for example, I find that I use Wikipedia a lot. As such, I’ve set it up so that if I want to find information on, say, Los Angeles, I can just type “w Los Angeles” (where “w” is my short form for Wikipedia). If I wanted to find the same info on Google, I would type “g Los Angeles”. Finally, if I wanted to see what Yahoo found, I could type in the address bar, “y Los Angeles”. This comes in very handy for searching multiple sources of information.

Videobox

Videobox ($15.00, free 15 day demo) is an application that lets you download Youtube videos. What’s unique about Videobox, however, is that it can also convert Youtube videos just as easily. Simply browse the the video that you want to download and then go to Window -> Videobox Queue. You should see the video in the list. Press the download button and then tell Videobox what file format to use. Youtube videos can be converted to all kinds of formats including ones that are suited for the iPhone, iPod, or AppleTV. All this is handled quite seamlessly through Videobox, which makes downloading Youtube videos a pleasure.

I’d just like to take this time and note that some users might be aware that there are completely free ways to do this - including downloading the video through the Activity window and then using a 3rd party FLV converter. However, in my experience, none of these are quite as quick and easy as Videobox. Plus, if you’re a Youtube addict, for the sake of $15 (most FLV converters will run you at least that) it’s probably worth it.

Last, but certainly not least, is GreaseKit , which brings the awesome functionality of GreaseMonkey to the Safari web browser. Originally developed for Firefox, GreaseMonkey has evolved into an absolutely astounding platform that can greatly enhance your browsing experience. GreaseKit works by letting users install scripts. These scripts can then change the way web sites are displayed, such as automatically showing the thumbs-down comments on Youtube, enhancing the Google search results page, and even allowing you to download videos from Youtube and other sites. One of my favorite places to get scripts is userscripts.org . They have a tremendous amount of downloads that, when combined with GreaseKit, will enhance virtually any site you currently visit.

These are just a few of my favorite plugins, but it’s certainly by no means complete. I’ve decided to focus on plugins that almost every one can use, but that’s not to say that Safari doesn’t have its share of specialized plugins. There are ones that are targeted at developers and ones that enhance popular services such as Flickr. While Firefox is certainly known for its extensibility, this article has been intended to demonstrate that Safari can be just as customizable. Indeed, with some of these mods installed and Safari’s rendering speed, it’s not hard to see that Safari could one day be a true contender for the top browser spot!

10 Best Safari Browser Plugins (Mac)

In the kingdom of Mac browsers, there are two names that rule the land: Safari - with its speed and style; and Firefox - with its flexibility of functionalities. There are other browsers of course, with their loyal users if I may add; but these two share the biggest share of the pie.

Being the native Mac OS X browser, Safari - which should have been a no brainer choice for Mac users - faces a fierce challenge from Firefox - the browser that can be anything you need it to be. Add-ons are Firefox's ultimate weapon.

But Firefox is not the only browser that can add functionalities using add-ons. The Safari browser also has plugins to expand its ability. While there are far less Safari browser plugins than there are for Firefox, not everybody needs everything.

So for anybody who are still deciding which one of the two should be the main browser, maybe these list of Safari browser plugins can help you choose sides.

Multifunctional

1. Glims is on top of my list of all other Safari plugins. It has expanded the search box functionality of Safari plus some other bonuses such as: re-opening closed tabs, automatically re-opening the tabs from the last session and full-screen browsing.

2. SafariStand [No Longer Available] also adds a few helpful features to Safari such as: Stand Bar (for quick access to bookmarks), history, Stand Search with Spotlight support, an Action Menu, option to restore last workspace, a site alterations preference window with the option to put custom CSS layouts on specific sites, and syntax coloring in viewed source. Go to more detailed explanation here .

Please note that you need to install SIMBL 0.8.2 or later before you can use SafariStand.

3. [NO LONGER WORKS] Inquisitor beautifully extends the functionality of the search bar. It auto-completes your search term, gives you search recommendations and lets you quickly see the results for your specified terms on another sites. If you need to have the powerful searchbar only without additional extra functions choose this one over Glims. Inquisitor also supports IE and Firefox.

4. CoolIris (Preview and PictLens) will transform Safari into a picture and movie viewer - in style. 'Nuff said.

We've covered CoolIris before, and it's nice to know that this product is also working fine under Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Linux; and for other browsers like Firefox, IE 7 and IE 8, and Flock 2. Safari under Windows is not supported though.

5. Safari AdBlock and SafariBlock are the ultimate tools to block ads and provide cleaner browsing. Most web publishers would hate these two as parts of the publishers' revenue come from advertising. But for users, blocking ads means less clutter and more browsing speed.

6. Click-to-flash - will prevent any flash content from automatically loading and will replace it with an empty grey box. Just click on the box to load the content. Anyone with a slow internet connection will find this webkit plugin indispensable.

Social Media

7. Safari140 is the tool to tweet. This plugin will allow you to send direct tweets from Safari, auto filled with the current site while the long URL's are shortened.

8. DeliciousSafari is self explanatory. This is the tool to create and use del.icio.us (no longer available) bookmark from Safari.

9. Greasekit is the comparable Firefox's Greasemonkey in Safari. It gives users the scripting ability to change looks and add new functionality to their favorite sites. Greasekit is compatible with most Greasemonkey scripts.

Just like SafariStand, Greasekit need SIMBL.

10. Firebug lite is the answered prayer for users who want to have Firebug ability - once Firefox exclusive - in other browsers. There are two ways to activate Firebug under non-Firefox browsers: insert the code in the site, or use the bookmarklet.

This one is not exactly a plugin but it is the solution for those who said that the only reason he/she stays with Firefox is Firebug.

11. Pimp My Safari - is the place to go to find more Safari add-ons in the form of plugins or bookmarklets. Please note that not all of the plugins are free.

This list is far from complete, but I think it's a good start. So if you know (and use) other good Safari plugins, please share them using the comments below.

How To: Load GreaseKit Scripts on Snow Leopard

If you spend a lot of time working with your browser, it’s very likely that you’ve heard of Userscripts. As the name suggests, user scripts are small code snippets meant to enhance your browsing experience. Scripts simply edit some aspects of your favourite web pages thanks to some css and / or javascript.

There are scripts that works with google.com, Facebook, Twitter…every famous website out there, mostly. These scripts are usually loaded with a browser extension: on Firefox we have Greasemonkey and on Safari its less known brother, GreaseKit .

So, if you’re running Snow Leopard and you use Safari, you’d probably like to give this GreaseKit a try. But, you’ll notice that it does not work at all. It won’t install and load any script.

Here’s the fix:

- First, be sure to install the latest version of SIMBL . It’s Snow Leopard and 64-bit compatible.

- Then, download GreaseKit here and move the .bundle file to SIMBL plugins folder.

- Last , the real fix , create a new folder and rename it to GreaseKit. Move it to ~/Library/Application Support. This will make GreaseKit install and load any script.
