TipMaster - Reply with Quote
Improves the TipMaster’s forums, Tek-Tips and Eng-Tips, by adding a link below each post on the thread pages to copy the given post’s content into the reply form’s message field. The quote’s parameter is the post’s author’s handle. The signature is not included.
The quoted message is converted back from HTML to TGML.
Protecting verbatim TGML as [ignore][valid TGML tag][/ignore] is not implemented yet. ( Actually there is an implementation, but is not
public as it is less optimal than could be, so I am looking for a better idea. ) ( I think it only works from a certain post date forward. If so, will not
fix it, but a better review is still pending. )

Configuration
Configuration not really supported.
But you could add ( or remove ) some of the tag conversion rules declared in the markup array.
This script may clash with other Greasemonkey scripts, so you may have to adjust the execution order in your browser :
- TipMaster - No Old New jumps to the first unread post, so the post footer height adjustment made by this script makes the jump unprecise. Set this script to run before TipMaster - No Old New.
