+<title>Editing bookmarks</title>
+
+<para>The <guilabel>Bookmark Editor</guilabel> shows a tree view of your bookmarks
+and bookmark subfolders. As is usual for tree views in &tde;, subfolders are shown
+with a small square at the left of the folder name; if the square contains a
+<keycap>+</keycap> sign <mousebutton>left</mousebutton> clicking on it will expand
+the view to show the contents of that subfolder and the <keycap>+</keycap> sign will
+change to <keycap>-</keycap>, <mousebutton>left</mousebutton> clicking on the
+<keycap>-</keycap> sign will collapse the subfolder view.</para>
+
+<para>To select an item in the list you can <mousebutton>left</mousebutton>
+click on it, or you can navigate through the list by using the <keysym>
+Up arrow</keysym> and <keysym>Down arrow</keysym> keys to move around,
+<keysym>Right arrow</keysym> to expand a subfolder and <keysym>
+Left arrow</keysym> to collapse it.</para>
+
+<para>You can move an item to a different place in the list by using the
+normal Drag and Drop or <guimenuitem>Cut</guimenuitem> and <guimenuitem>
+Paste</guimenuitem> methods. The order in which the items appear in
+the <guilabel>Bookmark Editor</guilabel> is the order they will appear in the
+<guimenu>Bookmarks</guimenu> drop down list. The <menuchoice><guimenu>Insert
+</guimenu><guimenuitem>Insert Separator</guimenuitem></menuchoice> option can
+be used to insert separating lines into the list wherever you wish.</para>
+
+<para>A new subfolder can be created at the selected point in the list by
+using the <guimenuitem>Create New Folder...</guimenuitem> option in the
+<guimenu>Insert</guimenu> menu or from the drop down menu you get when you
+<mousebutton>right</mousebutton> click on an item in the main part of the
+window, or with <keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;<keycap>N</keycap></keycombo>
+</para>
+
+<para>To change the name of a bookmark or folder select it then press
+<keycap>F2</keycap> or choose the <guimenuitem>Rename</guimenuitem> item from
+the <guimenu>Edit</guimenu> menu or the pop up menu that appears when you
+<mousebutton>right</mousebutton> click on the item. Similarly, you can edit
+the &URL; by pressing <keycap>F3</keycap> or choosing the <guimenuitem>
+Change URL</guimenuitem> menu item.</para>
+
+<para>The <guilabel>Bookmark Editor</guilabel> lets you import bookmarks from
+a range of other browsers into &konqueror;'s bookmark list, putting them into
+ a new folder or replacing all current bookmarks. To do this select
+<guisubmenu>Import</guisubmenu> from the <guimenu>File</guimenu> menu. The
+<menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guisubmenu>Export</guisubmenu>
+</menuchoice> option can be used to export &konqueror;'s bookmarks to a
+&Netscape; or Mozilla browser.</para>
+
+<para>If you often use the &Netscape; browser as well as &konqueror;, then
+rather than importing your &Netscape; bookmarks into &konqueror; it is
+better to select the <guimenuitem>Show Netscape Bookmarks in Konqueror
+Windows</guimenuitem> item in the <guimenu>Settings</guimenu> menu. If you
+do this any updates to &Netscape;'s bookmarks are automatically seen by
+&konqueror;.</para>
+
+<para>To select which bookmark subfolder is used to hold the Bookmark
+Toolbar items select the subfolder then choose <guimenuitem>Set as Toolbar
+Folder</guimenuitem> from the <guimenu>Edit</guimenu> menu.</para>
+
+<para>If you are tiding up your bookmarks and have forgotten what a
+particular web page is, you can easily open it from within the <guilabel>
+Bookmark Editor</guilabel> by <mousebutton>right</mousebutton> clicking
+on the item and selecting <guimenuitem>Open in Konqueror</guimenuitem> from
+the pop up menu. If you just want to check that the &URL; is still valid
+select <guimenuitem>Check Status</guimenuitem> instead.</para>
+
+<important><para>Don't forget to save your changes with <menuchoice>
+<guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Save</guimenuitem></menuchoice> or
+<keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;<keycap>S</keycap></keycombo> before you leave
+the <guilabel>Bookmark Editor</guilabel>.
