Hi, I am not a programmer nor do I have any experience in programming or script writing, I am trying to use this script to help me highlight some words, however I have no idea how or where to add the keywords. I see the lines where it says 'keywords' 'word1, word2, word3' and i would assume, being an idiot i can only be, this would be where i enter my keywords but i have replaced, changed and tried everything i can think of, again i have ZERO knowledge on this, could it be possible for a better explination on how and where, one would enter the keywords. It did say "Click on drop-down triangle next to the GreaseMonkey Icon" "User Scripts Commands..." but this triangle does not exist nor does it say userscript commands anywhere, i can go in to edit the script but again i have no knowledge on this kind of stuff, pleae can you highlight what and where i need to change in order for this script to work. Thank you.

Hmm, thank you for pointing out this problem.

Greasemonkey changed its API in 2017 and stopped supporting monkey menu items like the ones used by this script. I see from the Greasespot website that it was added back (after I stopped paying attention). Still, there are several code edits needed, it's not a simple find-and-replace.

You can test the script as written in Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey.

I just added a Compatibility Note to the Info for this script about this issue.
