That works, though it gives me a tar.gz file, which is rather  
annoying to extract on windows. I like plain js files or a zip  
archive.

Yes, I am becoming aware of some of the plugin-writing issues. These  
two were extracted from some of my code and were not scoped correctly.  
I've remedied that, but had not pushed the changes out to github. I  
did that push just now, so if you want to look, feel free.


In terms of the tar.gz, because these are extremely small plugins, I  
recommend you not use "download" and instead browse directly to the  
file. That way you can select and copy. I've noticed that this is a  
common way for jQuery plugins to be distributed (copy/paste).

Yes.  That creates a single scope for all the plugin code and allows you to
use $() inside that scope.  Handy when the next user comes along that
doesn't use the $() alias for jQuery() (e.g., because they also use
Prototype or another library), while keeping the plugin code tight.

Righto. Also, there might be some benefit in wrapping w/

(function($) {
  // stuff
})(jQuery);

Yes?

I have a couple of extend's to do that will make things work much more  
nicely.


Thx for the comments.

I'd recommend not using global vars.  Both of those plugins are  
doing so.

To be a little more specific, for example, do this:

var e = $('form input:visible');

Not:

e = $('form input:visible')

The files are available -- without git -- on github. If you don't want  
to clone them, just browse to them and download what you want.

Please provide something else then just a git link, eg. a simple  
download. Its fine that you use git as your source control system,  
but please don't assume everyone else does, too.
