Description genghiskhan 2022-03-27 09:29:10 UTC

I'm testing an XML stylesheet using a Userscript and have // @require falkon.xsl in metadata.

File falkon.xsl is copied to /greasemonkey/requires/ directory as falkon.xsl.js which is not the filename specified in the Userscript.

A possible workaround is to insert to whole file into the script as string, but it's not pretty on eyes, as syntax highlighting for XML is not available upon edit.

Greasemonkey extension of the Fox respect file extensions that don't end with .js.
Please put this on high/critical priority/importance.

I've used the wrong Metadata Block.
There's @resource for non-js file.

I still think that Falkon should not rename @require files, unless this is like that for all other userscript managers.
