Clippings: Can't export at all!!!

Your Clippings data that is used in Firefox is stored in a
file in
your Firefox user profile directory named
"clipdat2.rdf" - ditto for
Thunderbird. So when uninstalling the extension,
clipdat2.rdf will be
preserved since its location is separate from where the
extension is
installed.

If you want to make a copy of the data source file, you can
simply
copy the above file to another location on your computer.

FYI, I did a quick test, exporting clippings data containing
both
English and Chinese characters, and I had no problems.

P.S.: Could you please use plain text only for your emails
to this
mailing list?  The mailing list system seems to keep
flagging your
HTML-formatted replies as possible spam.
