Hello. I am beginning to like epiphany very much, but it still falls behind my fox for one or two reasons (which doesn't stop me from using it as a default browser, since the tab performance is WAY better with me). Then, since I don't know if I might eventually switch back and forth to Firefox (version 1.1 and 2.0... hmmm I wonder if epiphany will still be faster), and I like to have a seamless browsing experience, I would like to ask for your advice.
is it a good idea to try linking Firefox's bookmark file to Epiphany's ?
And I think the command would be "ln -s", but I am really not familiar with this so please correct me if I'm wrong.
Of course I did some researching in my files before writing this, but my knowledge is limited. I went to the chrome directories of both epiphany and firefox in my homedir, and I took a look at the bookmark code layout in Bluefish.
Here is an exerpt of Firefox: (note: I put it on pastebin because vbulletin is not smart enough.)

Here is an exerpt of Epiphany's RDF file (the one we should supposedly export/backup? I don't get it...

Here is Epiphany's....... oh wait. Nevermind
Actually there are so many instances of bookmark files, that already in epiphany's folder I am completely confused.
Do you think that this could have any chance to work? I mean this is the only "showstopper", because Firefox gives me the insurance of compatibility, and don't even think of manually keeping both browsers up to date. If I can't do this automatically, I think I'll have to stick with Firefox and its tabs :roll:. But it might get better soon, OTOH.
