See http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/emacs/BookmarkExtension With this you can actually import your w3m bookmarks in standard emacs bookmarks (temporarily or definitely), you can also bookmark from firefox to emacs bookmarks. I plan to add also firefox bookmark importation (will be done soon). So with that, all bookmarks will be centralized to standard emacs bookmarks. -- A + Thierry Volpiatto Location: Saint-Cyr-Sur-Mer - France ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

No, that's independant, hit "P" in bookmark menu list (C-x r l) will show your firefox bookmarks in bookmark interface. > - And from there you export to org? No, you create directly a org file with your firefox bookmarks: M-x bmkext-firefox2org > - What happens then with the hierarchy that was in firefox? Is it still there? Yes they come in same order than what there is in bookmarks.html (the firefox bookmarks). I really don't know what you want to do exactly with org file, so i provide a very basic function to make a file like: ,---- | * Firefox Bookmarks | | ** My first bookmark | ** My second bookmark | .... `---- Maybe you want to store also bookmarks coming from other browser (e.g w3m), in this case, i will enhance function to support syncing specific section. (e.g update Firefox section without modifying w3m section). NB: As said in precedents posts, Firefox>3 store bookmarks in places.sqlite. To enable Firefox autosync places.sqlite with bookmarks.html, you have to add to user.js: ,---- | user_pref("browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML", true); `---- or set this to true in about:config interface (double click). -- A + Thierry Volpiatto Location: Saint-Cyr-Sur-Mer - France ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

To my knowledge, there isn't an elisp package which will allow you to add/update bookmarks in a firefox bookmark file. Would probably be handy if there was one.
