Similar program using pydom:


import os, string

from xml.dom.writer import XmlWriter
from xml.dom.core import *

#
ROOT_DIR = 'favorites' # Fix this on your machine, I don't have NT.
dom_factory = DOMFactory()

class Name(Element):
  def __init__(self, name):
    Element.__init__(self, 'Name')
    self.appendChild(dom_factory.createTextNode(name))

class Url(Element):
  def __init__(self, url):
    Element.__init__(self, 'Url')
    self.appendChild(dom_factory.createTextNode(url))

class Folder(Element):
  def __init__(self, folder_name):
    Element.__init__(self, 'Folder')
    self.appendChild(Name(folder_name))

class Bookmark(Element):
  def __init__(self, name, url):
    Element.__init__(self, 'Bookmark')
    self.appendChild(Name(name))
    self.appendChild(Url(url))

# One could also use the factory everywhere instead of defining these 
# classes.


# This class is almost untouched from Frederik's version.
class MSIE:
  def __init__(self):
    self.root = Folder('')
    self.path = ROOT_DIR # Fix this if you're on Windows.
    self.__walk(self.root)

  def __walk(self, this, subpath=[]):
    # traverse favourites folder
    path = os.path.join(self.path, string.join(subpath, os.sep))
    for file_name in os.listdir(path):
      fullname = os.path.join(path, file_name)
      if os.path.isdir(fullname):
        node = Folder(file_name)
        this.appendChild(node)
        self.__walk(node, subpath + [file])
      else:
        url = self.__geturl(fullname)
        if url:
          this.appendChild(Bookmark(os.path.splitext(file_name)[0], url))

  def __geturl(self, file):
    try:
      fp = open(file)
      if fp.readline() != "[InternetShortcut]\n":
        return None
      while 1:
        s = fp.readline()
        if not s:
          break
        if s[:4] == "URL=":
          return s[4:-1]
    except IOError:
      pass
    return None


bookmarks = MSIE()
writer = XmlWriter()
writer.newline_after_start = ['Folder', 'Bookmark']
writer.newline_after_end = ['Name', 'Url', 'Folder', 'Bookmark']
writer.write(bookmarks.root)
