Is there a SQLite3 application which can:
1. read SeaMonkey bookmark files
2. manipulate the data [my bookmarks resemble Topsy - they just grew]
3. write the files back such that SeaMonkey can use the
cleaned up data?
I've not had *ANY* contact with any database system for DECADES {i.e.
dBASEII}. My gut says it should be possible. None of the bookmark
threads have suggested any feasible way to reorganize my current mess.
My Bookmarks file dates from about Netscape Communicator V 3.0 and, over
the years, I think I've ending up with three or four copies of my
Bookmarks with-in the Bookmarks folder, so I had been thinking of doing
something like ....
1. Export my Bookmarks file as HTML
2. Save a copy somewhere else!
3. Open Bookmarks.html in Notepad++ (or similar)
4. Select a Bookmark.
5. Do a search for that Bookmark throughout the file and delete the
duplicates if only one copy is required.
6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for each following bookmark.
7. Copy (not import into) the finished file back into the Bookmarks
file somehow.
I realise this would be A LOT OF (highly repetitive) WORK (which someone
smarter that me could probable script), but would it be a way of
achieving the slimmed down result??
For me, I would like to keep their histories too.
