10.4: Export Safari's RSS feeds to Firefox
Thanks! I don't usually do command-line Perl, so I didn't know it could be that compact. Cool. The essential substitution in both our codes was actually part of a larger Perl script that takes my Safari bookmarks and massively reformats them so the bookmarks (mostly) work the same on my Mac, our 4 PCs, and even my Solaris box. That script is very custom to my needs, but I thought this individual piece was worthwhile to share. Of course, then I read Zach's comments...

I recently wanted to update my bookmark-processing script to start handling the separators that are supported by SafariStand. (Bookmark Separators are such a great idea in any of the Mozilla browsers that I can't believe they're not officially supported by Safari!)
