A recent Slashdot article describes Greasemonkey, which makes it "... easy to write client-side scripts that modify webpages as you surf, ... [thus shifting] the balance of power from content creators to content consumers."

I looked at the script repository, and I must say that I'm jealous of Firefox users!

One Slashdot comment confuses me, though: "One can use Applescript to make Safari to run Javascript on webpages. From http://www.apple.com/applescript/safari/ [apple.com] we have

Safari now includes a do JavaScript command that enables AppleScript to communicate with the browser via JavaScript!"

Can Safari do what Greasemonkey does? If so...why doesn't anyone use this functionality? Why is there no script repository for these types of Safari scripts?

The functionality you mention would certainly make a Greasemonkey-like extension to Safari possible, but nobody has written one just yet. I imagine that one will probably come along sooner or later.
