Hi Scott,

You can in fact use the edit bookmarks feature to edit the stream name.  For
some reason using JAWS for Windows and I belief also Window-
eyes, although I haven't used the later for a while, that edit field does
not show up in the normal tab order.  So you should route your JAWS or WE
cursor to your application cursor and join them again when you find the edit
field.

Perhaps an easier way to edit the stream name is to bring up the Winamp
bookmarks file in a text editor.  The Winamp bookmarks file is called
winamp.bm and is located in your C:\program files\Winamp folder--assuming
your main installation drive is C.

Bring that file up in a text editor of your choice (notepad, ETC.) and then
The form is pretty straight forward.  The URL for the stream is on the line
above the stream name.  Locate the stream name you wish to change and type
in something you would recognize and then save the file.

Hi
When I bookmark an internet radio stream, it is placed in the bookmark list
with the name of the track that is playing when I make the bookmark.  This
is not very meaningful most of the time, so I had a look at the edit feature
and this seems to be the IP address of the stream, so if I edit it, I lose
the stream.

Does anyone know if there is a way of labeling the streams in the bookmark
list so that they have more meaningful names?

With Respects ... Scott
