Gist URL Copier enhances the GitHub Gist interface by adding two utility buttons to each file, making it easier for developers and users to copy important URLs.

Main Features

The script adds two new buttons to the action bar of each file in a Gist:

URL Button:
- Action: Copies the direct and permanent URL to the raw content (raw) of the file.
- Technical Detail: The script intelligently grabs the "Raw" link of the Gist, removes the specific commit hash from the URL, and replaces it with the gist.githubusercontent.com domain. This ensures that the copied URL always points to the latest version of the file rather than a specific revision.
- Example of copied URL: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/USER/GIST_ID/raw/filename.js
UserScript Button:
- Action: Copies the same permanent URL, but already formatted for use in the metadata headers of other UserScripts.
- Usefulness: Extremely useful for UserScript developers hosting their scripts as Gists.
- Example of copied text: // @downloadURL https://gist.githubusercontent.com/USER/GIST_ID/raw/filename.js // @updateURL https://gist.githubusercontent.com/USER/GIST_ID/raw/filename.js

In short, this script is a productivity tool that saves time and simplifies workflow for anyone using GitHub Gists, especially for coding and sharing UserScripts.
