##About

This user script adds a little "reply" link to each comment. Clicking this link will

1. fetch the rest of the comments, if some of them were hidden
2. show the "add comment" text box
3. pre-populate the text box with "@" and the name of the user you're replying to (removing spaces).

Be aware that there's no guarantee that the replied-to user will be notified of the comment -- all the @-reply caveats still apply (see [the blog][1] or [the community faq][2] for some information).

###Download

[install / update script][3] &ndash; [view source][4]

###Platform

I have tested this script in Chrome (Windows 7), Chromium (Fedora 14), and Firefox + Greasemonkey (both OSes).

##Contact

This script is created by Benjamin Dumke. Note that this is a free-time project of mine, and has nothing to do with my employment at Stack Overflow.
