This software scans a bookmark file and creates a web page featuring links.
If you have ever experienced the frustration of clicking on a bookmark, only to find that the website is no longer available, mirrorBookmarks is the solution you've been looking for. As a software script, mirrorBookmarks prevents this situation from occurring again.
This script works by scanning a given bookmark file and generating a web page that contains links to downloaded local copies. By using this script, bookmarked pages are saved locally, meaning you'll always be able to access them, even if the original website is no longer available.
To use mirrorBookmarks, you will need to input the following syntax: mirrorBookmarks.sh -o [directory] -f [outfile] -p [pathPrefix] [infile]. The -o option allows you to specify the output directory, the -f option sets the output filename for the local bookmark, and the -p option sets the path prefix, which is particularly useful for Windows output support.
In summary, mirrorBookmarks is a simple but effective solution for those who wish to avoid the annoyance of broken bookmarks. It's a handy tool for anyone who values easy access to saved web pages.
