Latest Update Donate
Hello! My name is Eugene Zrazhevsky. I am WeblocOpener developer.
Most of users of WeblocOpener download it to open .webloc file for one or two times.
So why they should do it? What if there will be a new service, based on WeblocOpener project,
that will give the same options?

So I've got an idea: website (or telegram bot) with WeblocOpener options: open, create .webloc
files,QR-Code generators with drag-and-drop features.
All of it can be realised, but there is a problem:
Github pages does not support java projects, so I need a new hosting (with domain name in case of website).

Good hosting with good options cost for 1-2 year of using: $250 - $500.

If you want me to realise this idea, please donate, and when it's ready - you will be able
to operate with .webloc files without downloading the app.


P.S. There is a pool in WeblocOpener's telegram channel. If we imagine, that I have all money
I needed to make WeblocOpener online possible, what it should be: a website or a telegram bot.
Link to a pool: link.

Introduction:

WeblocOpener is a simple way to open, edit, create MacOS Safari .webloc files on Windows and Debian GNU/Linux.

Breaking News ⚠️

Hello everyone!

Today I have an announcement for you. I’m happy to announce that @WeblocOpenerBot for telegram is now available!

There will be no need to install desktop version of WeblocOpener if you have to convert only some links.

Bot still being in development for that time trial plan is active for everyone!

It is expected to have at least 1 premium paid plan with fewer restrictions for converting. Other users will be available to convert some links for free. For most of the users it will be enough, if you’re not using it commercially or you want to support the project.

What is .webloc file?

.webloc extension is usually means that in front of you is a MacOS Safari web-url.
Actually it is a text document, formatted to property list — PLIST 1.0 (see).
You can open it with any text-editor (like notepad on Windows) to find out the url, saved in .webloc file. But if you need to open a big number of files or open them often — using text-editor wouldn't be the fastest and the easiest solution.
So that's why I want to offer you — WeblocOpener.
