Readme.md for bm2htl.pl

Name:

bm2html.pl - convert a Netscape bookmark file into a file or files
suitable for publishing on the World Wide Web.

Installation:

To install, merely move/copy the bm2html.pl file to your bin directory,
or any other directory you in your path. You may also need to change
the first line of the script to reflect the path to your perl
installation.

Usage:

bm2html options bookmarkfile

Options:

-o : Create a file for each toplevel folder, and a links.html file
with links to each of those files.

-y : Create a yahoo-style group of files and directories, with a 
links.html file with links to each of the top-level directories.
Cannot be used with the -o option.

-x : Do a chop twice, to remove the cr/lf used in Dos/Windows.

-css = 'filename' : Use the specified filename as a stylesheet.

bookmarkfile: The name of the bookmark file to convert. If none
specified, uses the default bookmark.htm

Bugs:

None that I'm aware of.

Notes:

I have had this idea for quite some time, but wasn't sure how to
implement it, until I saw a similar script, bmark, by Gihan Perera of
First Step Communications of Australia. It can be found at
http://www.firststep.com.au/software.
