Hi!

Nicely done. It's pity that some features are Windows specific. Please do it multiplatform!  ;)

A small thing I noticed: the word browser is not properly written (in several places).

I like the ability to export the links in HTML. But wouldn't it be better to have all links in one HTML file, instead of a category only?
My projects are on Gitlab and on Codeberg.

hi, Roland57

Glad you like the app I will look more into making it cross platform and also fix the spelling bugs, I think I may install Visual Box and install a copy of Linux  then I can do better tests then.

It already compiles and works on Linux.

I see only one problem, with the "Open link" feature. By the way, why don't you use OpenURL?

There could be also a problem here:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. function ExtractFolder(Path: string): string;
  2. var
  3.   s_pos: integer;
  4. begin
  5.   //Used to extract the path of the file, but removes the drive letter.
  6.   s_pos := Pos(':\', Path);

But it seems that the function is not used.
My projects are on Gitlab and on Codeberg.

I put this file for browsers on linux, it would be interesting if you put them automatically if you are using linux

I renamed browser.ini to browser.txt because the newsgroup won't upload it otherwise
