0.6
0.6.9
May 9th, 2007 [1]
Introduced:
- You can now reorder the scripts in the manage dialog with drag drop or the arrow keys.
- You can now use Firebug's console object to debug Greasemonkey if you have Firebug installed.
- Fix bug where install dialog would pop up when Greasemonkey is disabled.
- Make Greasemonkey enable/disable keyboard accessible. #9
0.6.8
March 17th, 2007 [2]
Introduced:
- Rewrite of 'New Script...' UI. It now pops up a nice UI to get the script details and then generates and opens a script which is already installed that you can edit in one step. This is a huge improvement in the usability of this feature. Thanks to Anthony Lieuallen for the implementation.
- Improvements to error reporting. Most types of errors in user scripts now give the correct line number in the error message. You can also click on the filename in Firebug to view the script, as with other types of errors in Firefox. Anthony is also responsible for this improvement.
- Added support for overrideMimeType to GM_xmlhttpRequest. Thanks to Lior Zur for the patch. To use, add overrideMimeType: "yourmimetypehere" to the object you pass to GM_xmlhttpRequest.
- New translations for Finnish, Japanese, and Russian. The Greasemonkey UI looks particularly cool in Japanese. Thanks to Tommi Rautava, Hisateru Tanaka, and Александр Соколов for their contributions.

Introduced:
- Fixed the manage dialog so that it doesn't bounce around when you select different user scripts (thanks Anthony Lieuallen)
