Reading List Reader

I’ve written a standalone script called readinglistreader.py derived from my ebook recipe for Safari Reading List. This script simply lists the contents of your Safari Reading List. It has many options to allow detailed control of the output list. By default, output is formatted as a CSV table, but it can also be formatted as a bookmarks file suitable for importing into other programs or services. In fact, since there seems to be no other easy way to grab the contents of  Reading List (besides Safari’s interface), this script is intended is to help export your Reading List bookmarks to other services, presumably as part of some other script you write.

Get it at Github.

Thanks for the code – helping me out of a jam wherein my iPhone is getting full from the articles in the reading list, but none of my devices will let me modify it. Hopefully I can delete them – especially now that I have a “backup” just in case!
