I find the Mail & Newsgroups Tags extremely useful.
I currently have ~50 discrete tags.

There is no problem with relative priorities - it evolves easily as
current needs change.

Color assignment is currently chaotic and *needs* an overhaul.
To do this I need a list of the current tags
    preferably in current priority order
    preferably with current assigned color

It's available somewhere as View->Tags can display it as a colorized ordered list.

How can I retrieve that information?
TIA


Going to about:config and searching, I see tags listed like this in my SeaMonkey.

mailnews.tags.$label1.color;#FF0000
mailnews.tags.$label1.tag;Important
mailnews.tags.$label2.color;#FF9900
mailnews.tags.$label2.tag;Work

and so on.


I was just going to write that, after 3 cups of coffee, I had found the information in prefs.js .

There it has the format
user_pref("mailnews.tags.X.color", "Y");
user_pref("mailnews.tags.X.ordinal", "Z");
user_pref("mailnews.tags.X.tag", "the displayed lable");
Consider X and Z as not for human use.
Y is how SeaMonkey has coded the color.

I can copy that content to a file which I can manipulate for my needs.
[standard caveat - don't edit prefs.js directly ]
