`buku` is a powerful cmdline bookmark management utility written in Python3 and SQLite3. When I started writing it, I couldn't find a flexible cmdline solution with a private, portable and merge-able database. Hence, `Buku` (after my son's nickname).
`buku` is a powerful bookmark management utility written in Python3 and SQLite3. When I started writing it, I couldn't find a flexible cmdline solution with a private, portable, merge-able database along with browser integration. Hence, `Buku` (after my son's nickname).

`buku` can handle piped input, which lets you combine it with `xsel` (on Linux) and add bookmarks from anywhere without touching the terminal.
