"v0.4 is up. a few bugfixes (resharing & editing comments should work better, still a bit buggy), navigating now correctly selects individual entries (instead of whole clusters). new shortcuts - s: reshare entry; a: expand all entries in cluster ('a' not working very well yet...)." - Trent Olson
It needs a good bunch of words for detecting western language (those based on Latin alphabets). Like, using "perfekt" to identity German (I know no German). Words have to be exclusively in specific language only. - Yu-Jie Lin
Some may have unique derived alphabet, but I only know English and Chinese. So if anyone would like to teach me a little, that would be great! - Yu-Jie Lin
Language detection is certainly difficult to code. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel, you might want to have a look at Google's Language API: http://code.google.com/apis/aj.... It's a Javascript interface that provides not only translation but also detection for quite a number of languages. All you need to do is call a Javascript function with your text and it returns the most likely language and the reliability of its assessment. Very handy! - Ole Begemann
It's a good idea to reduce efforts. But there are two major drawbacks of using Google Language API. First, need to send out many requests to Google, that may be slow down the whole processing. Second, API can only return the major language in text. - Yu-Jie Lin
Version 0.2.0.1 has some changes, check out the project page. - Yu-Jie Lin
Version 0.2.1 fix small bugs. I am starting to write a new script, FriendFeed Translator. Will also post my update in this room. - Yu-Jie Lin
Awesome! :) You're a genius! ;-) Thanks for this great script! - Éric Senterre
Be sure you also check out: http://friendfeed.com/e/a44733... I am now keeping reading those I can't read before, although the translated text is kind of funny sometimes. - Yu-Jie Lin
shouldn't make these two scripts... I am staying longer on FriendFeed. Have no excuse to close the tab. :p - Yu-Jie Lin
Version 0.2.2 made 3 small changes, include a new button icon. - Yu-Jie Lin
“I like the idea that if a developer shares his/her GM script in this room, and other developers are interested in making mods/adding feautres/fixing bugs on it, that we can collaborate here. What do you think?”
This is a great resource for learning Greasemonkey. I don't know much about Javascript but with this book it was no problem to write my first GM script. - Ole Begemann
Version 2 of my Greasemonkey script. Highlights your own comments with a blue icon and those of the thread owner in green. I don't know if/how Greasemonkey handles updates so if you've already installed it you might want to install it again. Feedback welcome. - Ole Begemann
a Greasemonkey script that allows you to filter your timeline by service. It displays a box with all of the service icons, and you can filter the public timelime, your friends timeline, or any user’s timeline by service. - LouCypher
