New - 1.1 Beta 1

Instructions:

After installing the user script, a "Filter Settings" button appears on top right corner of Google Reader.
Settings window shows two text boxes. One for excludes and one for highlights
In each box you can write regexes separated by new lines
Example:
```
java ?script
css
^free
windows (mobile|media|server)
```

* If you don't want a term to be treated as a RegExp, start it with a @

@[opinion]

When opening a feed, excluded entries displayed with gray text, and highlighted ones displayed with a lime background. That will filter from your eyes what you'd rather :) You can also totally hide excludes, in the preferences.

Attention!

This userscript only works with Google Reader's list view and not expanded view - switch to list view from the view tabs on the upper right.
