I use firefox, but I actually prefer using Opera more, and greasemonkey is built into Opera....but not all of these GLB scripts work on Opera. Im not sure why exactly, especially as a bunch of other scripts do work on Opera---so the developer must've done something good there.

But can we get the developers here to implement Opera compatible scripts, please?

Either...have two installs----one for Firefox, and one for Opera side by side on the install page. Or...develop all scripts and test them that they work on both if there's just one install on the install page.

There are some minor problems like the procedure for console output needing to be changed, the lazy for-loop structure not being available, and changing to xmlHttpRequest rather than gm_xmlHttpRequest.  But the biggies are:
1) No support for multiple files (which eliminates probably half of my scripts).  You can try copy/pasting all the required code into one file; simpler scripts might work, complicated ones might not.
2) No support for setValue/getValue.  Some scripts use these to store data.  If the data being saved overflows a cookie, then there's probably not a way around this.
3) There are differences in event handling between opera & mozilla which I haven't figure out yet (which eliminates probably half of my scripts which weren't eliminated already).

I haven't figured out which of my scripts will work in Opera, but I can assure you, it isn't many.
