Greasemonkey User Script Update Checker

5 September, 2009

Greasemonkey scripts are the best things about Firefox. These scripts make Firefox experience a  loving one and also they give you limitless tweaking and styling properties. But when you install your script unlike Firefox extensions it never checks for updates. Here is a nice Greasemonkey script which checks the update of other Greasemonkey scripts. This makes sure that you stay in touch with the updates of all GM scripts and saves you loads of time which you will spend looking for the updates.

Usage: After installing visit the userscripts.org site and you will see a new option on the top right corner of the site (see above screenshot), if you click this button that will force the script to check for updates immediately otherwise you can set the update checking interval and the script will check for updates according to that. These options can be accessed by right-clicking the Greasemonkey icon in your Firefox (bottom right corner – see screenshot).
