Fifth fails to start after importing Opera bookmarks #14

Closed pepalogik closed 9 years ago

pepalogik commented 9 years ago

I imported Opera bookmarks using the provided shell script while Fifth was not running. Then it could not start. After I removed the bookmarks file, it could start again. If you would like to inspect the generated file, please tell me where can I post it as a private message.

I'll need only the source file (in Opera format). If it's not too big, you could compress it with xz and send via e-mail? cand at gmx com.

Thanks. Your bookmark file contained several invalid directories (dirs without a name). I pushed a fix that assigns them the name "INVALID".

With this, your converted bookmarks are handled fine, though there's such a huge amount of them that the FLTK menu system has trouble making them easy to use by mouse. Using them via the URL bar should be nicer (typing their names like in Opera).
