How to use
--------------
After installing this script when you come across a site that has hard to read, low contrast text, then hit control-m, to make that site's colors permanently more clear. Colors & hotkey are customizable.
Alternately hit alt-control-m to cycle & toggle through clearer colors for that site but not to permanently change them. If the page in the tab remains somewhat unclear, hit the hotkey a second time for more extreme text clarity on that page; to remove the effect repeat for a third time control-alt-m.
The rest is fairly self-explanatory, but anyhow...from the scripts submenu you can set default text color, background color etc. for marked sites. Selecting "mark site..." allows you to enter a word or to leave it blank and just hit "OK." By default it is left blank and the whole site is marked for better visibility, which means that the color of text on that site will by default be set to a dark color, the background is not changed by default but can be set by the user via another submenu option.
If a word is entered after "Mark site.." is selected then only pages on the site that have that word in their URL will be affected.
If a site has already been marked and you visit it again, or reload it, the script's submenu changes, it is then possible to also set or change the text's color or the background color on the specific site/pages and not just to change the default colors for marked sites in general. It is also then possible, of course, to remove that site from the list of marked sites. Goto the page "about:config" and search for "markedsites" to see what site names and colors have been saved.
To invoke without the use of hotkeys go to the GreaseMonkey icon on the status bar and press the right mouse button to display the menu, move up to "User script commands..." and see the submenu that pops-up, this submenu (or a part of it) is the script's own submenu. To mark a site choose the submenu option: "Mark site or pages within site for extra visibility..." or use the hotkey. Do again to toggle and remove that site from the list of hard-to-see sites.
