URL Grabber was designed as a quick hack database for collecting URLs and their associated Titles from World Wide Web Browsers. URL Grabber comes configured for use with the popular Netscape browser.
A secondary function, that is not currently implemented yet, is that of output of collected URLs into a home page style TABLE or LIST.
Is it locked?
Yes, for the most part the ability to edit the field names and change the scripts has been shut off. However, other than those two limitations everything goes. You can go into Layout mode and rearrange the fields and the way that information is presented to you. If you would like to access the internal guts of the database then a mere $5 will suffice. You can send registration using the information below. Since many people do not tend to read these ReadMe files I will include the password that you need to configure the GrabberApp for another browser or to make custom adjustments to the AppleScript. If you are unfamiliar with AppleScript and would still like to try then feel free. The default Netscape coding is stored in a default value and you can get it back.
Password (used to modify the Grabber App) = applescript master
NOTE: this is not the master password for the database itself! You will find the "Set Password" menu item under the scripts menu.
