Documentation for Hotlist Converter
COPYRIGHT NOTE
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
©1997 by Frode Nilsen.
Hotlist Converter is freeware, in this version anyway.
DISCLAIMER
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
I use this program on my A1200 w/Blizzard 1230 without problems,
but it may very well crash on your machine!!!!!
I take no responsibility for any damage inflicted to your hardware,
sofware, data or sanity.
USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!!!
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
OS3.0 or higher
INSTALLATION
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Copy Hotlist to any directory in your path.
Catalogs, just norwegian in this version, has to be installed by hand.
FEATURES
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This program will convert the hotlist to/from the following browsers:
IBrowse v1.1 (Commercial)
AWeb v2.1 (Commercial)
Vogyager prerelease 2 (Shareware)
Netscape 3.0ß1 for Macintosh (Evaluation)
Hotlist will recognice which browser the source hotlist is from, you
then choose which browsers to convert to. It can convert to all tree
other formats in one go.
Some examples:
To convert Ibrowse's hotlist to Aweb and Voyager:
'Hotlist Ibrowse:IBrowse-hotlist.html -Aweb Aweb-II:AWeb.hotlist -Voyager Voyager:Bookmarks.HTML'
To convert Aweb's hotlist to Netscape (Mac):
'Hotlist Aweb-II:AWeb.hotlist -Netscape Netscape.hotlist'
Note:
The Netscape hotlist is read/written correctly with Mac's
<carrige return> instead of <newline> at the end of lines,
so you don't have to convert it.
HISTORY
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
I own all 3 webbrowsers for Amiga and Netscape for Macintosh, and
couldn't find any good and easy to use hotlist converters that also
converted between all the formats. So after a few hours of programming
in C Hotlist Converter was born.
0.96 18-Mar-97 Initial release. No GUI.
0.97 21-Mar-97 Would only work with WB 3.1, fixed.
Now will also start under WB 2.1, but I don't
know if all needed functions are present in
that OS-version.
