This documentation is old !!! URLManager ist ein MUI Programm, welches URL-Listen verwaltet. URLManager kann die Listen fast aller Web-Browser können importieren und exportieren (siehe Description). The idea of URLManager was born while I'm trying to update my favourite URL adresses from three different computer with different web browser with different hotlists. Listview, Strings ================= The bookmarks are displayed with their title and their URL. Listtree.mcc is used, so you can create groups to collect bookmarks of same kind. BE CAREFULL, not all of the browsers support these groups. With Drag&Drop you can sort the entries or move them into groups, later it should be possible to drop them on a web browser. After an entry is selected you can edit it with the string gadgets. Buttons, Menu ============= New Group, Hotkey G A new empty group will be created. New URL, Hotkey N A new entry will be created. Duplicate, Hotkey D The active entry is duplicated. Remove, Hotkey R The active entry is removed. Import ====== Here you can change the kind of the bookmarks file, which should be loaded. If this is set to 'UNIVERSAL' URLManager decides. Load..., Hotkey L, Menu Project/Load... A filerequester appears, the specified list will be loaded. Insert..., Hotkey I, Menu Project/Insert... A filerequester appears, the specified list will be inserted after the active entry. If the active entry is a group, the list is loaded into this group. Export ====== Here you can change the kind of the bookmarks file, which should be saved. Save..., Hotkey L, Menu Project/Save... A filerequester appears, the list will be saved. Additional Menus ================ Settings/MUI The MUI preferences for URLManager appears.
