Simple:
1. In the address area (URI bar), enter about:config.
2. In the Filter are of about:config, enter browser.bookmarks.
3. Find browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML among the listed items.
3.a. If browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML exists with the value "false",
double-click on it to toggle it to "true".
3.b If browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML does not exist:
3.b.i Right-click in the window and select [New > Boolian] from the
pull-down context menu.
3.b.ii Enter browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML in the New Boolian Value
popup dialogue.
3.b.iii Select true in the Enter boolian value popup dialogue.
My preferred:
1. Terminate SeaMonkey.
2. Locate the folder containing your profile, which is describe in
various Help places.
3. Edit the file user.js to contain the following:
user_pref("browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML", true);
// automatically export bookmarks into an HTML file
The second line is merely a comment to explain why you are doing this.
DO NOT forget to include the semi-colon at the end of the first line.
