Safari can Import IE, Netscape, and Mozilla Bookmarks on the Fly

Safari can Import IE, Netscape, and Mozilla Bookmarks on the Fly

From Brian Warren

Greetings from Haines, Alaska...

Safari can import IE, Netscape, and Mozilla bookmarks on the fly. To access this feature, you must enable the Debug menu. The simplest way is to use the terminal: Quit Safari and then enter in this:
defaults write com.apple.safari IncludeDebugMenu 1 (change the 1 to a 0 to disable it)

After that, just launch Safari and access all the "hidden" features of the debug menu.

If you have terminal fear, there are plenty of freeware apps that can do this and more. (such as Safari Enhancer: http://www.versiontracker.com/php/dlpage.php?id=17776&kind=1&db=vt3)

Print Preview: Agreed, IE has a simple, easy-to-use print preview. Safari does have that too (sort of). In that with Panther all default print dialogs have the preview button that gives you a print-preview of your document using, what else, Preview. Not as "on the fly" as IE's work, but you get to see it before committing, and I imagine that's what most people want.

take care,
Brian
