Create a Safari toolbar button for the bookmark manager

If you set Safari's Home Page address (Safari: Preferences, General tab) to bookmarks://, you can display the Bookmark Manager by clicking the Home button in Safari's main toolbar.

Create a Safari toolbar button for the bookmark manager
This is a nice hint. Thank you.
A simpler solution.
This is a great hint. Rather than using the mouse you can also type "Command + Shift + H" to go to your home page when you've setup Safari according to this hint. Also, you could simply use the keyboard shortcut "command + Option + b" to get to the bookmark manager without changing your home page which I usually have set to blank to save time when launching Safari or any browser for that matter.

You've removed the book icon for "Show all bookmarks" from the far left end of the Bookmarks Bar?

Good question. A quick search of this site turned up no hints on how to remove the Bookmarks icon from the Bookmarks Bar, but I thought I had once removed it. I can't recall how, if ever I did.

No, I haven't removed the "open book" button from the bookmarks bar - I meant that I have a different bookmarks button that's still available even when I've concealed the entire bookmarks bar with "Hide Bookmarks Bar" (under the View menu).

Thanks for clarifying that your hint would be most useful with the Bookmarks Bar hidden. It's sort of redundant when the BB is visible since you can just click the "Show all bookmarks" icon (osxpounder: I didn't want to try removing it by dragging it since if that worked I wasn't sure how to get it back :-)). Most of the time I use the option-command-B shortcut. And shift-command-B is a shortcut for toggling the BB visibility.

On a realted note, does anyone know all of the available protocols in Mac OS X (e.g. webcal:// and bookmarks://). I can't seem to be able to find a comprehensive list.
