Tools, Scripts, and Extensions

There are many tools developed by fellow editors which facilitate editing. Tools for keeping track of things, viewing information in an easy way, or browser extensions and scripts that add extra functionality to WME. Note that with every update of WME, it may need time for the developers to adapt the scripts and tools as well.

This page describes those that might come handy for starters. Advise is to make yourself acquainted with 1 script at a time, to understand the working well.

At the bottom of the document you'll find an overview of all scripts.

Tools

Starter package
For the starting editors a special package with scripts and extensions can be downloaded; zipped in this starter.zip file. It contains the scripts below marked with ^STR.
Add the package as follows:

1. Open the TamperMonkey dashboard
2. tab 'Utilities'
3. Zip Import

The TamperMonkey import does not skip an already installed script; so it can result in doubles.
