NuGet packages: https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=bookmarksmanager

**Usage examples:**
```csharp
//Read bookmarks from string
var reader = new NetscapeBookmarksReader();
var bookmarks = reader.Read(bookmarksString);
foreach (var b in bookmarks.AllLinks)
{
  Console.WriteLine("Url: {0}; Title: {1}", b.Url, b.Title);
}

//Read bookmarks from file
using (var file = File.OpenRead("path_to_file"))
{
  var reader = new NetscapeBookmarksReader();
  //supports encoding detection when reading from stream
  var bookmarks = reader.Read(file);
  foreach (var b in bookmarks.AllLinks.Where(l=>l.LastVisit < DateTime.Today))
  {
    Console.WriteLine("Type {0}, Title: {1}", b.GetType().Name, b.Title);
  }
}

//Write bookmarks
var bookmarks = new BookmarkFolder()
{
    new BookmarkLink("http://example.com", "Example")
};
var writer = new NetscapeBookmarksWriter(bookmarks);

Console.WriteLine(writer.ToString());

//supports writing to stream with custom encoding
writer.OutputEncoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(1257);
// Use FileMode.Create to overwrite existing files and avoid leftover content
using (var file = File.Open("path_to_file", FileMode.Create))
{
    writer.Write(file);
}
```
