see topic http://userscripts.org/forums/2/topics/1801

Updated - March 2, 2008
Added form to change settings on-the-fly, and/or save for reuse.
Added - as suggested by Mithrandir - option to open beginning post instead of last post in threads.

Bugfix - March 4, 2008
maxthreads open error - thanks @fuxxi
globalStorage may cause security problems for some users ... removed that option, now relies on GM_ routines for FF - thanks @Mithrandir.

Options

maxlnks - maximum threads to open 0=all new threads

showBtnIf - minimum threads before button display 0=always show, 5=show if > 4 new threads

unread||first post - open unread threads(normal) - uncheck to open first post in thread.

useTimeout - toggle delay for thread-read cookie setting true||false
Setting a timeout didn't work for me, YMMV try =true

tOut - if using cookie set timeout, delay in milliseconds (cookies won't be stored if too low!)

For why timeout was introduced see topic http://userscripts.org/forums/2/topics/1801
