That used to be easy, now not so much.
Why not?
Old UI:
1) Select script
2) Click add
3) Type the URL
New UI:
1) Select script
2) Click edit
3) Type the URL (and "// @include ")
The only possible difference is finding the right line, and in almost
every script, that's a really obvious place.
Can you describe _why_ you think the new UI is harder to use?
The biggest problem is that if the script is updated, I have to save the
script somewhere, open the existing script, copy the URLs to the new
script, and only then install the new script (actually it will be:
install the new script, wonder why it suddenly seems to have stopped
working, complain to maintainer, get called a moron by maintainer
because I'm expecting it to work on a page that isn't @included,
remember I added the URL, recover old version of script from backup,
copy all added URLs to new script. :-) )
It's also nice to be able to see the include and excludes without
waiting for an editor to launch, and for the scripts I maintain,
explaining to non-technical users how to add URLs and what to do when
updating a script will now be much harder.
