+
+Configuration is done by directly editing the script. Two launchers are available (dmenu and fzf). You can specify which one to use by adding to the PREFERED_LAUNCHER variable directly in the script. Both will display a menu that will allow you to choose a bookmark and open it in your default browser.
+
+If you would prefer to have your bookmarks stored in alternate location there are also variables that can be changed for that. The default is /home/user/.bmks/urls
