Greasemonkey script to disable emoticons in Jira
Apr 20th
If you’re using Jira, you’ve seen it take your SQL and mangle it into emoticon nonsense:
![]()
Here is a simple greasemonkey script to undo this madness. It is enabled for all urls that match “jira” (you may need to change this to match your installation). It walks through the DOM looking for img elements with the ‘emoticon’ class, and replaces them with a text node. May your journey be free from extraneous gold stars, forevermore.
Better Quality YouTube Videos (with “fmt=18″)
May 4th
YouTube has many videos in better resolution, but doesn’t have an easy link to the better video. The URL to the video is easy — just add &fmt=18 to the end of it — but doing that by hand is kindof a pain.
A simple GreaseMonkey script makes it easy and automatic, though!
- Use Firefox
- Install GreaseMonkey
- Install youtube-fmt-18.user.js
Remember to always view the source of any greasemonkey script you install (including this one). Never install scripts where you don’t clearly see what it’s doing. This one’s nice and simple, though.
