1. Install Stylish, restart
   
2. Go to the webpage with what you want to edit
   
3. Open DOM Inspector (Tools > Web Developer > DOM Inspector | CTRL-SHIFT-I)
   
4. (In DOM Inspector) Edit > Select Element by Click
   
5. (In the page you want to edit) Click something to edit
   
6. (In DOM Inspector) Right-click the highlighted item in the tree view > Copy Selector > *You might see many options here including
   1. All elements of this type (ex:"DIV")
      
   2. A class selector to edit a class someone wrote into the website's custom CSS meant to be applied to several elements prefixed by "." (ex:".blockedtext")
      
   3. An ID selector meant to be specific to that one single instance of an element per page prefixed by "#" (ex:"#forumheader")
      
   4. A CSS selector using complex selection rules (ex:"DIV[lang="en"][class="mw-content-ltr"][dir="ltr"]")
      
7. In DOM Inspector's tree view, you may find that what you actually want to change is the parent of the element you actually clicked on, so click higher-level elements and watch the blinking red selection box DOM Inspector displays on the page. Copy the CSS selector that best fits the element or set of elements you want to change.
   
8. Right-click Stylish icon on Add-on bar > Write new Style > For subdomain.domain.com
   
9. (In the Stylish editor) On the empty line between the curly brackets, paste the selector you copied in DOM Inspector. You can add more selectors separated by commas if you want to apply the same rules to all of those elements (ex:".header, .footer").
   
10. Following the CSS selectors you wrote/copied, add your own set of curly brackets
    
11. (Within your curly brackets) Write the CSS attribute changes you want to make. If you're interested in CSS I'm sure you have some in mind, but W3 and W3Schools are pretty good. If you want to edit some CSS changes that a website has applied, DOM Inspector's style view can help you find out how those changes are written.
    Each rule should be terminated by a semicolon, but since we also want to override other CSS we're going to add "!important" to every CSS rule we write.
    
12. Click "Preview"
    
13. If you like your CSS changes, give it a name and save it.
    
14. Right-click the Stylish icon on the page you wrote a new style for and turn your style on and off again really fast to your heart's content.

1. Take a URL from a list of URLs (in say a text file),
   
2. Download the source code of the webpage that that URL leads to,
   
3. Copy that source code to sheet 1 in a new xls (or xlsl) spreadsheet (with each line on a separate row in column A),
   
4. Save and close the file, naming it after the position of the URL in the list (e.g. the third URL would result in 0003.xls),
   
5. Move onto the next URL in the list and repeat
   

require 'rubygems'
require 'open-uri'
require 'spreadsheet'

# first we open our file of urls - name it urls.txt in the same directory as this script
position = 1
File.open('urls.txt').each_line do |s|
	puts "Reading #{s}"
	# gives us an array of the html of the page, split by line
	html = open(s).read().split("\n")
	
	# creating our spreadsheet and first worksheet
	book = Spreadsheet::Workbook.new
	sheet = book.create_worksheet
	row_num = 0
	puts "Creating worksheet"
	html.each do |row|
		next unless row.length > 0
		sheet.row(row_num)[0] = row
		row_num += 1
	end
	
	# writing the spreadsheet out to this directory
	book.write "#{position.to_s.rjust(4, '0')}.xls"
	puts "Wrote to #{position.to_s.rjust(4, '0')}.xls"
	position += 1
end
