Zoom your textarea!

[[image:zoomtextarea.jpg::left:0]]Taken shamelessly from the “excellent Lifehacker-blog”:http://www.lifehacker.com/software/productivity/download-of-the-day-zoom-textarea-firefox-user-script-104004.php: The Zoom Textarea user script lets you enlarge textareas on any web page for more glorious room to type – so handy for writing forum posts, weblog comments or posts, and web-based email. The Zoom Textarea user script requires the Firefox Greasemonkey extension (at least version 0.3.) If you’re a Firefox user without Greasemonkey, here’s how to install the script: # In Firefox, click “Install Greasemonkey” from “here”:http://greasemonkey.mozdev.org/. Be sure to allow “greasemonkey.mozdev.org” to install software in your browser. # Restart Firefox. # Right click on this link: “zoomtextarea.user.js”:http://diveintogreasemonkey.org/download/zoomtextarea.user.js. # Click “Install User Script.” Press OK. # Refresh any page with a text area on it, and you will see a zoom in and zoom out button above it. If you spend a good part of your day typing into web pages, Zoom Textarea will quickly become indispensable for your writable web. “Case study: Zoom Textarea”:http://diveintogreasemonkey.org/casestudy/zoomtextarea.html [Dive into Greasemonkey] Update: It also makes the font in the textarea itself bigger, so the effect is not that great….hmmm..
