[PLUG] Re: Newbie's First Question - followup to those pesky bookmarks

["George Langford, Sc.D." <amenex@amenex.com>]

Hello fellow PLUGgers !

Netscape 4.78 keeps telling me it's made an "error saving bookmarks
file."

I've tracked down two places where Netscape saves this file:

        /usr/lib/netscape/bookmark.htm
and
        /home/user0/bookmark.htm

I can force a save to the latter, but adding bookmarks to the
Netscape default (?) bookmarks file (the former) does not get
them saved - always lost upon restarting Netscape.  Once I've
forced the save with "save bookmark file", I can get it back,
but I have to open that version of the bookmark.htm file with
Netscape's "open file" menu entry.

A Google search on "error saving bookmarks file" reveals that
the problem is spread across many platforms.  But the solution
is nowhere to be found.

This is a minor problem right now; I'm mentioning it while waiting
for my Linux PC vendor to get in touch so I can ask what's up with 
the CD-R/W drive.

Best regards,
George
