About

gURLfriend is a utility that will parse your Netscape or Internet Explorer bookmarks files into a format that is more convenient to post onto a web site. The standard bookmark file contains information such as the add date, the last visit and the last modified time. This extra information is pretty much useless to most people and is removed by gURLfriend. The gURLfriend application also searches through your bookmarks list and indexes all the bookmark folder names and creates a table of contents. This table of contents appears above the list of URLs when viewed using a browser. By clicking on the folder name, the user is brought to the place in the URL list that contains those links. How do I use gURLfriend? gURLfriend is very easy to use. Simply drag and drop your bookmarks file onto the gURLfriend application. gURLfriend will write out a file named gURLfriend.html. Your original bookmarks file is untouched. You can then post this HTML file onto your web page. Why would I want to use gURLfriend? If you are like me you put a copy of your bookmarks list on your home page. By using gURLfriend you will significantly decrease the size of this file and also make it easier to use. My bookmarks file size went from 64K to 35K after running them through gURLfriend. It is also indexed which makes it easier to use. A parsed bookmarks file takes much less time to transfer when posted on your page. Where can I find updates to this program and other software by the author?
