Indexfinger Conversion
Since on the Indexfinger site, Joseph mentioned writing an app that will steal all of Yahoo's link (to which he claims he will just write the app and is not responsible for its misuse.. even though Yahoo is copyrighted...) I was wondering if anybody has worked on an app to convert an Indexfinger site to Links?

Would anybody be interested, or has it been done? ;>

To my knowledge, it has not been done.

Conversion would depend on the format of the other databases and their structure, which I personally am unfamiliar with.

Well, since they are all text files, shouldnt be a problem.

If I get a free week, I might try it myself. Smile

No shouldn't be a problem.

If the fields are comporable to Links' then it's just a matter of reading them in and reordering them (or removing unwanted ones, or creating needs ones etc).

Don't know if you managed to do the conversion, but there is now a script available. See:

Let me know how it works out!

Cheers,
