With SeaMonkey terminated, find the file user.js in the profile.  Open
it in a plain-text editor (e.g., Notepad, Wordpad).  Insert the following:
        user_pref("browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML", true);
        // automatically export bookmarks into an HTML file
The semi-colon (;) at the end of the first line is mandatory.  The
double virgules (//) at the beginning of the second line indicate this
is a comment.  NOTE:  Bookmarks are exported to the file only when
SeaMonkey is terminated, thus the following paragraph.

Leaving the profile directory open, launch SeaMonkey.  Terminate
SeaMonkey.  Launch it again.  The file bookmarks.html should now appear
in the profile directory.

On the menu bar, select [Edit > Preferences > Browser].  On the Browser
pane, select Browser Startup in the pull-down selection list for
"Display on" and then the "Home page" radio button.  Then select the
"Choose File" button and navigate to bookmarks.html.  Select the OK
button.
