Opera Buttons for newbies

Opera Buttons!
An other cool thing...
It's not been long that I'm using Opera regulary, I find lots of features I had added to Firefox missing, but if you set images to load from cache it's much much faster.
Old Opera users know all this, so this is for beginners like me, and for those who don't like reading long articles.
If you've tried to Customize your toolbars and buttons, you may have noticed that, like extensions in Firefox, they are made by users.
But the big difference, it seems to me, is that it's easyer!
You can add buttons like TinyURL,custom del.icio.us, launch external programs and more! Check in my sidebar links ->
To install, all you do is click on them! Or drag them.
But I havn't found somewhere that explains how to make a button to launch mac apps, you know how? Please tell me!
Also an other great thing is the user.js, a folder where you dump scripts, like the user stylesheet, you assign, not the file, but the hole scripts directory in the preference(preference > advanced > content > javascript).
They resemble greasemonky scripts, they can change the content or behaviour of a page.
Like this script will put an icon beside links to show the extension(pdf,txt..)
Just make a directory, the name you want, anywhere you want, and put the file in it and tell Opera wher it is.
There are tones more here and here!
Note to change the toolbars:
View > Toolobars > customize > buttons, then drag and drop to any button to any toolbar.
The View > Toolobars > customize > toolbar is for changing the place of the toolbars
