This archive has four utilities: Book2OWB, FastOWB, OWBBook and OWBCookieJar.
*OWBBook: This program is called/started by OWB itself (menu option
"Tools/Bookmark"). It can read bookmarks/hotlists from IBrowse, AWeb, OWB
address book, Firefox/Mozilla (experimental) and Google Chrome (experimental)
(and OWBBook format itself, which is almost the same as IBrowse's).
*FastOWB: This one opens a tool window on the screen with "fastlink" buttons.
Create a file with names and URL's with any text editor. File syntax for every
line is: name=URL. Or use GUI. NEW: It shows a list of open OWB windows to
substitute tabs. Select an entry from the list to bring an OWB window to front
and activate it.
*Book2OWB: Use Book2OWB to convert your hotlist from some other browser to
OWBBook format (OWBBook format is almost the same as IBrowse's). It has a GUI
but it's also possible to use it from command line. Command line syntax is:
"Book2OWB <source file> <target file>". It's possible to convert from IBrowse,
AWeb or OWBAddressBook to OWBBook format.
* OWBCookieJar: Use this tool to manage cookies of the OWB. Requires:
libsqlite3.so installed.
