The Netscape Bookmark File Format is an informal standard used by many a web-browser to import/export bookmarks, i.e. those in the bookmark bar, and sometimes something else. It was originally found in the Netscape browser, then, I think, adopted by Internet Explorer, with other browsers following suite. The exact order and history doesn't matter for my use, which is, to implement this format import (and maybe export?) in Betula.
Microsoft has a description in IE docs. Can I really trust it? I don't think so! It was written for IE a long time ago, modern browsers might interpret it frivolously and playfully.
