##Overview
User scripts are relatively short pieces of code that can be installed, enabled, and disabled by individual users in order to modify the behavior of the Tatoeba user interface. These scripts can serve an important role in streamlining tasks that you do frequently and adding functionality that has not yet been incorporated into the main codebase. They typically are written and tested to work with the Mozilla Firefox browser, but can work with other browsers as well. You will need to install the Greasemonkey add-on. See next section for more details.
##Greasemonkey
Visit the [Greasemonkey add-on page](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/) to install Greasemonkey. The [userscripts.org Greasemonkey guide](http://userscripts.org/about/installing) provides additional information. Some scripts require editing for customization.
##Finding scripts
At the moment, the best way of finding a current, comprehensive list of Tatoeba-related scripts is to search the website [userscripts.org](http://userscripts.org) for [scripts tagged "Tatoeba"](http://userscripts.org/scripts/search?q=Tatoeba&submit=Search). To see a discussion of individual scripts, see the next section.
Also see http://a4esl.com/temporary/tatoeba/userscripts/
(Someone should eventually add all of these to these page.)
##Description of individual scripts (in alphabetical order)
- [Tatoeba Default Languages](http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/152983) (author: FlamingTofu) moves your desired languages to the top of the language drop-down lists. You need to edit the script once to list the languages you desire.
- [Tatoeba Linker](http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/99149) (author: Zifre) adds a box for entering the number of a sentence to be linked to the main sentence on a page. (Note that linking can only be performed by those with "advanced contributor" status and above. To request an upgrade in status, send a private message to alexmarcelo.) This is especially useful in a workflow in which you have previously gone to a sentence that you will want to link and copied its URL (for example, by right-clicking it and selecting the "Copy Link Location" function). Then you simply need to visit the main sentence, paste the URL into the field, and strip out everything but the sentence number at the end.
- [Tatoeba Search Language Switcher](http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/151698) (author: Pandark) replaces the single-headed arrow between the two language fields at the top of the screen with a double-headed arrow. Clicking on the double-headed arrow swaps the values in the "From" and "To" fields. The script does not require any editing.
- [Tatoeba Sentence Timeline](http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/121207) (author: jakovo) places log entries and tags chronologically between the comments on a sentence. The script does not require any editing.
- [Tatoeba Symbol Insert Helper](http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/102000) (author: jakovo) adds links for inserting special characters into the Tatoeba translation boxes. It can optionally be edited in order to remove unwanted character sets from the list, add new ones to the list, or modify the order in which they appear.
##Making requests
For the time being, place requests involving creation or modification of scripts on the page [User script requests](user-script-requests). Eventually, we can use a more sophisticated tracking system.
