//Shamelessly stolen from [[User:Ais523/highlightmyname2.js]] and modified for my use.
//This script highlights all instances of the logged-in user's username on pages by
//giving them a gold background. It only checks bodyContent, not titles or sidebars,
//and doesn't change edit windows or Special:Preferences.

/* You can highlight a string other than your username by writing
 * hmn2username="stringtohighlight";
 * just after the line and/or lines that you used to install this script.
