<h2>Searching through bookmarks</h2>
Sometimes you are looking for a bookmark in netscape and
you can only remember that the URL or title did contain
some key word.
A little perl script, I called it showbook, can help in
that case. <br><br>
<tt>showbook linux</tt><br>
does e.g list all your bookmarks that contain the string
Linux somewhere.
<p>
<a href="http://www.oche.de/~bearix/g/scripts/showbook.txt">Click here</a>
to download the script. <br>(Note: If you download the script under
windows then you must convert the dos textfile first to a unix textfile
before it will run under Linux.)
</p>
<h2>Copy paste a url while not online</h2>
Somehow it is not possible to copy/paste a URL from your
bookmark list into an other program. You can click on the
bookmark go to the page and then copy the URL from the location
entry at the top of the window in netscape. The problem is
that you need to be online to do that. Again the above
showbook program helps. It just lists the URL in the terminal
window and you can easily copy/paste from there.
