But I've more-or-less given up keeping bookmarks: reduced them to the few Front-Pages of those sites I frequent often. What does come in handy is a list of web-pages I often refer to in posts or may want to examine again the next time I explore a particular subject. I had been copy-and-pasting URLs into named 'odt' documents: store the document in a directory relating to the subject matter, open the document in Libre-or-OpenOffice writer, scroll down, place the cursor at beginning of the URL and ctl-click. But that's like using a sledge-hammer with thumb-tacks. Figured there must be a way to use geany. Your post answered that question and the first method you mentioned works fine especially when the document records several URLs.
