Introduction:

WeblocOpener is a simple way to open, edit, create MacOS Safari .webloc files on Windows and Debian GNU/Linux.

What is .webloc file?

.webloc extension is usually means that in front of you is a MacOS Safari web-url. Actually it is a text document, formatted to property list - PLIST 1.0 (see). You can open it with any text-editor (like notepad on Windows or gedit on Ubuntu) to find out the url, saved in .webloc file. But if you need to open a big number of files or open them often - using text-editor wouldn't be the fastest and the easiest solution. So that's why this application was created - for these users.

What can WeblocOpener do?

• WeblocOpener gives full MacOs .webloc files support on Windows and Debian GNU/Linux.

• Open .webloc files.

• Choose not default browser to open URL. Open in browser from preset or use custom. Browsers in preset: Google Chrome (Chromium project), Opera, Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and more... or you can use your custom browser. You can use any custom browser by your own with custom call, using syntax: <file_path> %site.

• Convert .webloc to .url and backward by using drag and drop on settings window

• Create new .webloc files. Created files are fully supported by Safari on MacOS and WeblocOpener on Windows or Unix.

• Edit created files. Unlike .webloc files on MacOS that can not be edited by default (except for text editors), WeblocOpener provides the ability to edit .webloc files on Windows.

• WeblocOpener will try to get the title of page from inserted url and will give you an option to rename it by this title. Now there is no need to name files by yourself.

• Auto-paste URL from clipboard when you created a new file. When you've just created an empty file, WeblocOpener helps you to paste copied URL into ULR-field. It automatically finds an URL in your clipboard.

• Dark mode will protect your eyes at night. It turns on automatically scheduled or by your location. Check out in settings how to customize it for yourself.
