Multi-Window Browser

A short program that creates and runs an HTM file displaying your favorite sites, with each site in a separate full-window iframe. Your sites are found in mwb.dat, one line per site, with each line containing a title, a comma (with no following space), and the URL. Lots of room for improvement but it does the job for me.

; Multi-Window Browser (mwb.ahk)
;
; This program creates an HTML file containing one window for each URL
; in the mwb.dat file, which must exist in the same directory as mwb.ahk.
; Example mwb.dat file (start in column one, omit semicolons):
;   Fox News,http://www.foxnews.com/
;   Drudge,http://www.drudgereport.com/
;   Late Night Jokes,http://www.newsmax.com/liners.shtml
;   Sudoku,http://www.websudoku.com/
