//  
//  As Kate's and Interiot's edit counters are now seldom updated, I have updated the script on
//  Wikipedia:Edit counters to include a variable that allows you to specify which edit counter
//  you wish to use: Kate, Interiot, Essjay or Interiot's Tool2.
//
//  Please note that the Tool2 counter is not yet IE-compatible, so if you choose Tool2 and 
//  then click on the edit counter link with IE, a message will appear which will allow you to 
//  download Mozilla Firefox, which the Tool2 counter will work with. --Andrew
//  
//  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
//  Indicate where you would like "Kate" to appear:
//    pt-userpage, pt-mytalk, pt-preferences,
//    pt-watchlist, pt-mycontris, pt-logout
//
gsKateInsertBefore = 'pt-mycontris'; // leave blank to append after "logout"
