I love Camino 2.0.7.

I like the icons in Bookmarks Bar, and the easy to find and backup history.

The time has come to upgrade to Safari 5 or Aurora 7 / Firefox 6

I don't like Chrome

Is there any way I can export Camino history, which is a .dat file, into Safari or Aurora / Firefox ?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I had a Bobby Dallas Shower revelation.

I can drag all my Camino history into a new BM Folder !

Still need to open these BM's in other browsers though, to create History.

I've left the remaining of my original post, for now.



(I have to import BM's into Firefox for Aurora as Aurora doesn't have Import in menu, yet)

The only solution I have found so far by experimentation is to

Open Camino History in new tabs (During unlimited time)

Bookmark all tabs

Import BM's into other browser

Open them all (again During unlimited time)

That then becomes History in other browser (on todays date)

Delete those BM's

Only problem, whilst my daily history may be only 300 sites, total history is > 30,000 !

(My memory and history is usually better than Google for past pages.)

Camino History



Open Thursday History (BM's) in Safari


Safari Activity monitor Memory


Safari Thursday BM's transferred to History

Amazing quick opening 537 tabs in Safari (10 mins)
And it didn't stop responding at any time, though Camino wouldn't open whilst Safari was downloading 537 tabs.
