suggestion:
- add an option of never auto saving
- add a manual save option of all urls (as button and as context menu) to a selected folder

I supposed is not a bookmark folder....

The OP says: "...create shortlinks to urls in a folder ...in the desktop of our election ... from a txt file with the url list.
I have to ask:

* Why?
* What will you do with/How will you access/use those shortlinks in that folder?
* What's wrong with using Bookmarks?
Also, yes, your making 3 or so overlapping posts on the same subject is somewhat confusing.

OpenURL as he mentions here.

Making multiple posts a few minutes apart doesn't really help either, (Contro, not you IainB :) ).

So to sum up:

* A program to copy the URLs of open tabs to a text file. - Apparently solved
* A program to create shortcuts in a folder on the Desktop, of the URLs listed in a text file.
* A program to create shortcuts in a folder on the Desktop, of the URLs of the tabs open in Firefox.

I have found this. For me is difficult, but I am sure is a possible way to do it :

Shortcut v1.11 (Shortcut.exe)   Last Updated: 07/04/2005

Allows you to create, modify or query Windows shell links (shortcuts) from the command-line. You can export the properties of an existing shortcut to a text file in .INI format. Use 'Shortcut /?' to view the syntax.

Requirements: Windows 95 or later
Compiled from Language: C++

from shorcuts creator

If from AHK is possible to go across a txt file (I know is possible) , then executing the shortcut.exe for every line

do while .not. eof() or something similar
enddo

Another possible way to face the problem is :

Creating multiple Windows URL shortcuts from a bookmarks HTML file

4wd has defined me perfectly well.

I also make myself the same questions IainB does .

I have many possible answers of course but one of them is because the window folder, window file are the most simple concepts from the operating systema DOS 6.0 .

I have lost in the past a lot of time because every program and every system tries to remain me captive of formats and special transitions.

That's why i am trying in this "more simple way" that turn into a confusional and difficult way .

But is my way.

We process information : A good friend of mine, with limited knowledges, use the windows folders and files as a sort of powerful database.

When he need something he goes to his folders.....
