Jon Pugh has created a HyperCard stack called "URLs" which can be 
downloaded from
http://iw.cts.com/~jonpugh/hyperstuff.html

The description on that page is :
"URLs (449K) is a database of URLs completely categorized and 
controlled by AppleScript and HyperTalk so that it can communicate with 
Netscape, place URLs in indexed and expandable categories and perform 
as a much more complete bookmark manager than Netscape's simple menu 
can. It sorts, timestamps, verifies, gets names, supports copying into 
and out of the database and lots more! It also supports balloon help, 
so simply point at everything to find out what it does. I find this essential!"

To use this stack, your friend will need Apple's HyperCard Player which 
comes free with every Mac, and the AppleScript extension, which is part 
of System 7.5. If your friend has mislaid the HyperCard Player, it can 
be downloaded from

Macintosh/Utilities/Hypercard_Player_2.3.5.sea.hqx
