Autoconverting Konqueror's bookmarks to Galeon's bookmark...

Hi!,
I've noticed that Konqueror has the superpowers of importing galeon xbel bookmarks but it fails miserably because he can not export to xbel bookmarks.
I would like to know why he could not export them because I wish to have the same bookmarks for Konqueror and Galeon (I use them alternatively for some reasons...).
I've discovered that with dcop you can do almost everything (in a smart and fast way, too!), so I wish to convert, at X boot time, Konqueror bookmarks to Galeon ones without convert them to mozilla and importing them into galeon...

Some ideas?:)
Pietro.

PS: I know that all of you hate GNOME and its gloomy software (except for The GIMP!), but galeon has one or two features that do not allow me to use ONLY konqui:))))))) !!!!

I think Konqueror uses xbel as well.

Have you tried using the same file?

I have thought that Konqueror has its propertary bookmarks... but I was (fortunately!) wrong!
Just:

$ cd .kde/share/apps/konqueror

$ mv bookmarks.xml bookmarks.xml.old

$ ln -s /home/pietro/.galeon/bookmarks.xbel bookmarks.xml

And Galeon and Konqueror share the bookmarks:)= A kind of magic!:)=

Bye bye,
Pietro.

No, only Mozilla and Internet Explorer have not switched to XBEL yet.
