 # Massages a Chrome bookmarks file into an HTML file.
 #
 # Features:
 # - Folders are ordered alphabetically
 # - Bookmarks are ordered alphabetically (by description)
 # - Bookmarks are shown first, followed by folders
 # - Folders can be expanded or collapsed. Initially collapsed.
 # - Folders are indented nicely
 # - A button is provided to expand/collapse all folders
 #
 # Setup:
 # 1) Find your browser's Bookmarks file.
 # 2) Copy it into the same folder as this script
 # 3) Open a terminal window; change directory to this script's folder
 # 4) If any of your Bookmarks have international characters, you
 #    will want to do the following:
 #    set PYTHONIOENCODING=UTF-8
 # 5) python betterbookmarks.py > bookmarks.html
