Try the 'Opera Tools' apps

MyOpera regular Diplo today released his Opera Tools. These tools, combined with a tweaked menu setup, give a proper GUI to two features of Opera 8, that normally require editing of ini files: URL filtering and server-specific UA spoofing.

The readme file in the package tells all you need to know. For those that want to incorporate the tool in their already customized setup, it is accessed using this menu item:

Item, "Add to Block List" = Copy image address & Execute program,"C:\Program Files\OperaTools\OperaAdBlock.exe", "C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Opera\Opera8\profile\filter.ini"

and
Item, "Identify As..." = Copy document address & Execute program, "C:\Program Files\OperaTools\OperaUAEditor.exe", "C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Opera\Opera8\profile\ua.ini"


This obviously needs editing to get the paths right.

This isn't new, though, is it? I've seen this in the Opera Forums several months ago. Is there something new now? Thank you.

I prefer the ua.ini editor found here. It allows on the fly ua changes as is uses userjs for the site allowing you to see if your ua changes work without having to close and reopen the browser.

AFAIR, these tools were released about 6 months ago. Diplo just uploaded them to my.opera.com.
