Tech: Seamonkey How bring up location bar

I've used Seamonkey for years. Right now I don't
get what I gather is called the Location Bar, the
third bar from the top of the screen, which contains
the back arrow and the input slot and historical list
of sites visited, with ability to access the history
of contacts by clicking the site name, such as Mudcat,
Mapquest, Netflix. This list is a sort of rolling
bookmark list.

There used to be three buttons at the far left of
the first few top lines on the screen, the clicking
of which would bring up (or, alternatively, hide) the
respective taskbar. Now only the buttons for the
File, Edit, View (etc.) and the Home, Bookmarks, and
Most Visited (etc.) bars are present there; none for
the Back Arrow, etc. bar.

I suppose my answer is somewhere in the Help Contents
section, but I've not be able to find it.

Anyone?

Maybe something here:
Where's the URL bar in Sea Monkey?

Okay, problem solved:

View -> Show/Hide did it for me. Thanx.

What's your point? That list tells you what's been fixed, not what hasn't. You'll find a similar list for Firefox.
Here's the latest SM release notes:
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.33/

I used SM for some years, before Firefox existed, but changed to Firefox because it had new features earlier, and there were more compatible addons. I don't know why people use SM rather than Firefox plus Thunderbird. Probably they're just happy with it and see no reason to change, which is fair enough.

I use and will continue to use Seamonkey because of the integrated email browser. No need to go elsewhere, and no need to clutter
my desktop. It's cluttered enough without an external email browser like Thunderbird or Micro$oft's equivalent.

That, in addition to the fact that I just generally like the
Seamonkey interface.
