Cleanup the script reference titles with Greasemonkey

Unity Engine

If you’re using Firefox and, like me, open tab after tab while browsing the Unity docs, you’ve probably already seen a wonderful view like this one:

… which can be frustrating, especially when you’re looking for a doc and you know you have just the right tab open… somewhere in the mess.

Well, if you’d rather fix it with a dirty hack instead of trying to be better organized ;), then go grab Greasemonkey (super small FF extension, 2 secs to install), and add this here script.
Tada!.. now you’re seeing something like this:

Firefox rules.

PS: It works with local help too. Of course you still won’t get the nice Unity icon. Ah, the agony…

Safari doesn’t support plugins, so you’d need to hack the documentation itself :-/

(Greasemonkey is a FireFox plugin that lets you add JavaScript code to pre-existing web-pages on-the-fly post-hoc … so it’s a plugin that enables more plugins. Safari could definitely use this whole concept.)

However there’s nothing to stop you using a program like TextWrangler which will do search and replace across an arbitrary file hierarchy and replacing:

"Unity Script Reference – "

with:

“”

I just did it and it took about 15s to scrub the Unity 2 docs.

Uh, try it, guys. Safari trims off identical portions of webpages in multiple tabs. That is, it doe exactly this when more than one page is open.

Yeah, Safari does this by default. No need for grease or monkeys.
