DESCRIPTION

bookmarks is a tool to export bookmarks from files supplied as arguments, or from browsers default locations (when called without arguments). If file is a dash "-", STDIN is read and processed as plain text source. The following sources are supported :

- Safari (*.plist)

- Firefox (*.sqlite)

- Chrome and Edge (*Bookmarks)

- Internet Explorer (*Favorites)

- Netscape (*.html)

- Markdown (*.md)

- Gemini (*.gmi)

- Surfraw (same as plain text)

- Plain text (any other extension)

Default export format : <title> <url> <description>

- <title> is your bookmark's name, alias, or webpage title.

- <url> is your bookmark's address, URL or URI.

- <description> is empty for Chrome, Edge, Internet Explorer, Netscape or Gemini. It contains Safari 'Description', Firefox 'Tags' and what the Markdown spec calls the 'Title' (just the tooltip, actually).

Markdown, Gemini and plain text files are processed line by line (as UTF-8) :

[markdown example](http://example.md/ "with description")
=> gemini://example.gmi gemini example
plain text example http://example.txt with description
