 Ah, but I can load it into StrongED and search for URLs and launch

 You may have to edit some as the URL has been split.

  Shortcuts for hotlist and global history are now
 both in my NeXTBar. Problem solved!

 Maybe so, and I may be thick:

 Open a NetSurf window.
 Adjust click the History button.
 Menu In the Global History window
 History  Export  drag the HTML icon to the NetSurf iconbar icon or the
 filer or whatever.  Ah, doesn't it look like Fresco.  ;-)

Wow! I never had any idea that it did that; many thanks. And it does 
that with the hotlist, too.

 That seems to provide exactly what you are after. Two clicks, a slide and
 a drag too many?

Not laziness, just ignorance.

With best wishes,

Peter.

 Please, where does RISC OS NetSurf keep its global history, and in 
 what form? I have searched in vain so far.

Choices:WWW.NetSurf.URL

 I've been able to search the hotlist by loading the HTML in 
 Boot.Choices.WWW.NetSurf and then using NetSurf's search facility, and 
 there are occasions in which it would be useful to be able to do this 
 with the global history, if that's possible.

The database of visited URLs is not in HTML format.
