I seem to recall the ability in the past to access an image file in
the disk cache from the media table in the page information, but at
present I am unable to locate it. I can of course select an image and
save it to a file elsewhere, but when I only need the file for
immediate use this requires me to take action to delete this file when
I am done with it.

Am I missing a setting somewhere?  How can I access an image file
without needing to save it outside the cache for one-time-use
situations?

You may use http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/image_cache_viewer.html
and .....

When selecting a cache item in the upper pane of ImageCacheViewer, the
image is displayed in the lower pane, and you can copy the image to the
clipboard by pressing Ctrl+M.


then CTRL-V into IrfanView where you can do what you want with this
image.

Hmm, that seems to provide a Windows solution. "Unfortunately," I am
a linux user and need a solution I can use here.

A bit of searching found me a perl tool, but unfortunately that will
only work if the browser is closed as a key file is kept in memory
while the browser is operating.

Thanks for the pointer, perhaps someone else knows of a linux tool and
I will keep looking myself.

Could this one help ?
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/cacheviewer/


It is unclear to me what additional features this add-on offers from the description, and given it is a FireFox add-on it would need to be converted to run with SeaMonkey.
Sometimes there is no need for a conversion.

Does anyone have it installed and can tell me if it is possible to get the actual full file name for a cached image file with it?
You tell me that i must install this extension on my SM to do your test ?
What will you do with this file name: ~/.cache/mozilla/seamonkey/{SALT}.default/Cache/A/32/2D35Fd01 ? The only way to catch it into an image-program is to see it per exemple inside https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/cacheviewer/ and do there a "COPY" then start your prefered image-program and do a "PASTE". Normally all image-programs are unable to open a file when this filename did not contains an "image-extension" like .jpg.
