Firefox and automate your bookmarks, automate opening of new tabs

During the development time you always wish to speed up your productivity , don't spend too much time for opening the bookmarked pages with different important developer related content! You looking for a solution? Look no further! 

So here you go!
The ultimate solution if you need to automate the opening of your bookmarks in firefox browser. This tutorial was tested in Windows 7.

First create on your desktop or where ever you like the openweblinks.bat file and put following code to it ( address means the website like for example www.javaprofide.de) :

start "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe -new-window" address
timeout /t 2
start firefox -new-tab  address
start firefox -new-tab  address
start firefox -new-tab  address
timeout /t 10
start "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe -new-window" address
timeout /t 2
start firefox -new-tab  address

What this code does ?
First it starts new firefox window  with given website address, then it waits for 2 seconds and opens a tab in the already opened window.
After 10 seconds a new firefox window is opened and there once again a tab can be opened.

So pretty simple?
I am pretty sure the same stuff can be done in iOS and Linux operatings systems, because it relies on the passing arguments format.

Please notice, that your machine can be slower or faster then my and you need in some cases to adjust time for waiting , but truly after that one click and you open all you favorite bookmarks, no more time spent in looking and clicking ;)
