  • Can also create or read standalone or "backup" bookmarks files.

What's new in this version:

SUMMARY. Fix for Firefox 3 users who wish to retain duplicate bookmarks, improvements to AppleScriptability, Automator actions, and other bug fixes.
  • Now allows duplicate bookmarks when saving to Firefox 3. This is thanks to the astute observation of a user who noted that, although Firefox 3 silently deletes the older bookmark when you create a new one using "Bookmark this Page", it does allow you to create duplicates in its Organize Bookmarks page using copy and paste.
  • Now supports scheduling migrations using a new AppleScript, Bookdog Migration Scheduler, which uses launchd, as an alternative to scheduling Automator workflows as iCal Plug-Ins. For info see the revised documentation on this subject.
  • The Automator Action Migrate Unilaterally now has controls to edit the create folders from tags and add parent names as tags properties of a migration document. These new properties are significant in migrations involving Firefox 3.
  • The Automator Actions Migrate Unilaterally and Migrate Bilaterally now quit the source and destination browsers if necessary before performing their migration. (Quitting is necessary for all browsers except Safari.)
  • In menu > File > My Macintosh Account, the browsers listed have now been checked for existence of a bookmarks file exists instead of just existence of browser application. In particular, if Firefox 3 users now delete their 'bookmarks.html' file produced by Firefox 2, Firefox 2 will no longer be listed in this menu. (If you would like to do this, open your Firefox 2 bookmarks in Bookdog, then click in the menu File > Document Information, read the File Path, activate Finder and delete the file at this File Path, then close the document in Bookdog without saving.)
  • Fixed a bug which could cause Bookdog to hang when performing a "Save As..." operation with OmniWeb bookmarks.
  • Fixed a bug which caused Bookdog to hang instead of issuing a warning after finding over 32,768 duplicate pair combinations.
  • Removed some extraneous Access Control Entries (ACE) in the Access Control Lists (ACL) of two files (AmpEscapes.plist and BookdogBark.aiff) in Bookdog's Contents/Resources. These would sometimes cause disk backup operations to fail, particularly when using Carbon Copy Cloner.

Download link here and both the .zip and .dmg links on the developer site are still for 5.3.3, but the release note page on the dev site mentions 5.3.5.
