Course points cannot be listed (not even by a script written by flowstate)

For those who are interested, here is the difference between the previous and latest versions of the script:

Thanks, I will check it later.

It is a good tool, eg. it would have helped me to realize that some of my course points were duplicated in my latest course. Maybe I pinned a cp and since it was not visible within a second in GC, I  pinned it again at the same place.

Oh, somehow a comma was added to the end of my link…. I also corrected it, thanks for it, too.

It's because the forum is not smart enough to exclude trailing punctuation (like commas and periods) when it automatically creates links from text URLs, unlike iOS, gmail, Slack, Office, and many other modern apps and operating systems.

The workaround is to press space immediately after typing or pasting a text URL - that will ensure the text is converted to a link immediately. Then you can press backspace/delete and add whatever punctuation you wanted to add.

It's one of the many usability issues with this ancient forum platforn.

I tested it just now, and *** yeah it works. :-)

Out of curiosity, the script does not list the default "course start" and "course finish" course point, is it because your script deliberately excludes them, or are they not visible for this sort of cp listing?
