Hello! Bookmarks Database and Internet Robot WHAT IS IT Here is a set of classes, libraries, programs and plugins I use to manipulate my bookmarks.html. I like Netscape Navigator, but I need more features, so I write and maintain these programs for my needs. I need to extend Navigator's "What's new" feature (Navigator 4 named it "Update bookmarks"). WHAT'S NEW in version 3.0 Complete rewrite from scratch. Created mechanism for pluggable storage managers, writers (DB dumpers/exporters) and robots. WHAT'S NEW in version 3.2.0 New simple_tos robot, based on timeoutsocket.py. New writer fald_err that dumps only errors from the database.
