<title>Using Bookmarks</title>
<para>Usually, you click on the
<guibutton>Bookmark</guibutton> button when you are in the target
folder. For example, to bookmark
<filename class="directory">/usr/tmp</filename>, navigate
&krusader; there and click the
<guibutton>Bookmark</guibutton> button and select
<guimenuitem>Bookmark Current</guimenuitem>. When the
<guilabel>Bookmark Current</guilabel> dialog box appears, the
&URL; line will say
<filename class="directory">/usr/tmp</filename>.
<guilabel>Name</guilabel> is for the name you would like to give
to the bookmark (e.g.: temporary folder). Hotkeys are supported
by adding
<literal>&amp;</literal> to the bookmark name
&eg;
<literal>&amp;sourceforge, &amp;home,
down&amp;loads</literal> &etc;, so you can
quickly call the bookmark name with
<keycombo action="simul">&Alt;
<keycap>foo</keycap></keycombo>. If you add the bookmark
without entering a name, the bookmarks name will be the same as
its target.
<guilabel>URL</guilabel>
<!-- Openjade does not like an acronym element for "URL" here -->
is where the bookmark points to.
<guilabel>Create in</guilabel> creates bookmark folders for
organizing your bookmarks.</para>
<para>To use your bookmarks, click the
<guibutton>Bookmark</guibutton> button and choose a bookmark.
You may also use the &keybindigs-lnk; :
<keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;&Shift;
<keycap>d</keycap></keycombo> to bookmark the current item,
<keycombo action="simul">&Alt;
<keycap>right/left arrow</keycap></keycombo> to
<keycap>open right/left panel bookmarks list</keycap> and
<keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;
<keycap>d</keycap></keycombo> to open the bookmarks of the
active panel. A &MMB; click on bookmarks opens them
in a new
<link linkend="folder-tabs">Folder tab</link>.</para>
<para>Navigation in bookmarks:
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Start typing letters</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>&eg; when you type
<literal>'h'</literal> and only one bookmark starts with
<literal>'h'</literal>, it is executed immediately - no
enter needed</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>If more than one bookmarks begins with
<literal>'h'</literal>, you will have to continue adding
letters, until you have specified enough and again, the
bookmark is executed.</para>

<sect2 id="password_handling">
<title>Password handling</title>
<para>One of the benefits of the
<link linkend="bookman">bookmark manager</link> is that the
passwords are saved using &kde;'s services - where
&eg; your &konqueror;/&kmail;
password are saved. If you have a wallet, &kde; will
save the passwords there. By clicking the bookmarks, a dialog
will open and ask for your username and password. Supply them
and click 'save password'. The passwords and usernames will be
saved securely by &kde;'s wallet (make sure it is
enabled by your distro). The downside here is that if you
reinstall and do not backup your passwords from the wallet as
well as &krusader;'s bookmark file, something will
be lost.</para>

<indexterm>
<primary>Popular URL's</primary>
</indexterm>
<para>The submenu
<guilabel>Popular URL's</guilabel>
<!-- Openjade does not like an acronym element for "URL" here -->
holds persistent the most popular visited &URL;'s
(local or remote). This submenu displays the top 15 popular
URLs, sorted by ranking, so that the top &URL; is
the most popular. This is easy for when you need to visit
&URL;s often, but do not want to create
&bookmarks-lnk;, it serves as a temporary bookmark
list for the most visited links.
<guilabel>Quicksearch Popular URL's</guilabel> is a fast way to
browse/select the popular &URL;s:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Open the
<guilabel>Popular URL's</guilabel>
<!-- Openjade does not like an acronym element for "URL" here -->
or use

<sect2 id="permanent_bookmarks">
<title>Permanent bookmarks</title>
<para>These are hardcoded bookmarks to the top bookmark menu;
there is no need for them to be saved to the file. With the
&context-menu-lnk; you can enable/disable these
permanent bookmarks. The following permanent bookmarks are
available:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
<guilabel>Media</guilabel> uses &kde;'s
<link linkend="konfig-advanced">Media protocol</link>
<filename>media:/</filename></para>

<filename>lan:/</filename> protocol.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<guilabel>Virtual Filesystem</guilabel> &vfs-lnk;
<filename>virt:/</filename> is not a virtual folder, but a
container for &URL;'s from different file
systems. It is used for &eg; the
<guilabel>Feed to Listbox</guilabel> feature of the search
module and the synchronizer. The location toolbar will
display &eg;
<filename>virt:/Search results 1</filename> or
<filename>virt:/Synchronise results 1</filename>.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem id="jump_back">
<para>
<guilabel>Jump back</guilabel> or
<keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;
<keycap>J</keycap></keycombo> brings you back to your
starting position when you did create a new tab in the
panel window. This feature is very handy if you go deep
into a directory tree, than you can return with one action
to the starting point. With
<guilabel>Set jump back point here</guilabel> or
<keycombo action="simul">
&Ctrl;&Shift;
<keycap>J</keycap></keycombo> sets the current directory as
a jump back point.</para>

<para>To edit and organize your bookmarks, by clicking the
<guibutton>Bookmark</guibutton> button and selecting the

&xbel-url; standard for the bookmark format. The
bookmarks are stored in
<filename>

<para>You can import bookmarks from
<application>IE</application>,
