(*
Netscape/Mac places the URL of a saved page into the comment of a files info window.
Though the pages in the cache are updated, but it's somewhat impossible to adress them from there
store the pages in a file.
This script takes /ilFolder/ and reads out the comments
Then these URLs are downloaded again with Netscape
So you have a folder where all the frequently used pages are and you easyly can keep them up to time
Works with everything Netscape can handle (http, ftp)
If you don't want to have the security of dupe being trashed comment it out.
