This is fucking dumb to make users download a greasemonkey script in the situations where everyone would benefit. Just because these boards target nerds who know how to install a greasemonkey script can't excuse such a shitty user experience.
And of course you can do this modifications in that old perl script that hasn't been updated in years. But it's high time to move away from the futaba clones with additional shit badly bolted on for the user perspective, especially now that this sort of software has been coopted almost only by idiots.
