+- **Import**:
+  - URLs starting with `place:`, `file://` and `apt://` are ignored during import.
 - **Encryption** is optional and manual. AES256 algorithm is used. To use encryption, the database file should be unlocked (-k) before using `buku` and locked (-l) afterwards. Between these 2 operations, the database file lies unencrypted on the disk, and NOT in memory. Also, note that the database file is *unencrypted on creation*.
 - **Editor** support:
   - A single bookmark can be edited before adding. The editor can be set using the environment variable *EDITOR* or by explicitly specifying the editor. The latter takes preference. If -a is used along with -w, the details are populated in the editor template.

   - All lines beginning with "#" will be stripped. Then line 1 will be treated as the URL, line 2 will be the title, line 3 will be comma separated tags, and the rest of the lines will be parsed as descriptions.
