The development of CYW is currently suspended.
A video with an overview of the capabilities of CYW is available under
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHOzLyNgldUCYW was selected as a runner up of Mozilla's Extend Firefox 3.5 competition!
The basic principle is as follows: If you want to customize a website you switch to an edit mode (either by pressing F10 or by clicking on the statusbar icon) and create a "script" consisting of a series of actions and a defintion for which sites the script should be applied. The script with its actions is then executed after every load of the website. Everything is done in a WYSIWYG mode (What you see is what you get).
The scripts can be edited and modified at any time by just toggling again into the edit mode. In addition scripts can be exported/imported and shared via a simple web link.
Customization capabilities include
* Removal and rearrangement of elements (cut / copy / paste behavior)
* Modifying of elements in every possible way (changing size, color, default values etc.)
* Definition of keyboard shortcuts / shortstrings for any clickable element
(shortstrings are multi-character shortcuts, e.g. "SO" for a "Sign out" Button)
* Adding keyboard navigation support for any list of elements
(e.g. for the result entries of search)
* Insertion of arbitrary HTML and JavaScript code
* Definition of small macros which are triggered by a shortcut
* Automatically triggering actions on page load (e.g. for automatic click on a login button or
focusing a special field)
In addition you can
share your scripts either in my forum (see below) or on your own website. For details see
